Just commented on your "test" post.

Great looking car! Does yours have air suspension?

Congrats!

Atomic silver? VERY rare on the LS. I almost bought an atomic silver 2017 over my liquid platinum one. Thats probably my favorite Lexus color, enjoy!

Thanks ! I like others have been enjoying information you have been providing. I was leasing a 14 GS350 three years ago, but it was nothing like this vehicle. I thought I wanted a liquid platinum instead, but this color grows on me everyday. Can’t wait to get it Ceramic Coated. I am also learning how rare this car is......I did get a aftermarket Lifetime Driving Train Warranty with zero deductible. Just got it checked out at Lexus dealer today.....passed with flying colors. One owner, 70,000 miles......I almost let this one get by. My friend got pissed at me for not moving faster on this one once he saw it. He said “Do u know how hard it is to find a L ?”. And here I am. One thing that bothers me is I don’t have the original sticker that was on car. I am learning from u what I have..... 1. Semi-Aniline Leather 2.ML Stereo (freaking incredible) 3. Heated rear seats. I think the sticker on this one would have approached 91K ?

That darker silver does look richer than the mercury metallic of my 08. Want to trade?

Very sharp!

I wonder if this is the same car I almost bought new in Dec 2017, that color is so rare. It was optioned just like this, for sale at Pohanka Lexus in Chantilly.

For a 2 year old car, 70K is a lot of miles. Hopefully, they were mostly highway. In any case, if the previous owner performed all of the regular maintenance at a Lexus dealership, the car should be in fine shape.

You can enter the VIN number to get a detailed description of all the options on your car at the Lexus Driver's site, but this won't show the price. The sales department at the Lexus dealership should be able to print out a window sticker including price for your car. Happy driving!

Felt it was a lot of miles also. Weighed maintenance record and fact they had to be highway miles and looked like no one else riding in car. No door dings, looked garage kept. Availability of L’s with a ML....I pulled the trigger. Car was in New Jersey serviced there throughout

Sticker would have been high 80s. Mine was slightly more, its a southern car so RWD vs AWD, but I have air suspension and radar cruise which evens the pricing out.

I can remember past dealer talking me out of ML on my 350. He needs to be fired. The sub in this car is incredible. I did purchase it in Northern Va though
