In terms of use case, this vehicle will be my daily driver - mostly city driving but I also have to do a decent amount of highway driving both for work and to the beach about 2 hours away. I’m in my mid 50’s and my wife and I are almost empty nesters. We are beach people, and so I used to tow a...

I hope I can post this here and cross-post in the 200 series forums... Dammit, I am so torn between a 2014 LX 570 and a 2015 GX 460. I have driven both and also driven other LC/LX and 460s so I am aware of the essential differences between the two vehicles. Not trying to ask if this or that is...

Hey guys - I’m looking at a 2014 LX 570 owned by a private seller who is offering it to me for $33k. It has 108,000 miles and is in 9.5/10 shape. I’ve driven it and it seemed to check out. Current owner is the 2nd owner. No accidents other than a minor fender bender. Vehicle was serviced at a...

Thanks everyone

Hi there - I'm looking at a 2013 LX with about 145k miles and pulled the Lexus maintenance records. Everything was done at the Lexus dealership and all the scheduled maintenance was done. But part of the records have the entries below, and I'd like to get ya'lls feedback/input at to whether...

Wish I lived closer!

Thank you everyone. Very helpful. I have gotten used to some of the newer tech etc. but none of those things are deal-breakers. I would like something that is reliable and comfortable, which I think these older LX 570s are. I appreciate every comment here. Please keep them coming! @bloc -...

I should also add for the sake of discussion that assume all maintenance records are complete, complete and on schedule, and there are no accidents. In other words, I would rule out any vehicles with potential red flags.

I have owned several 4Runners in the past and my youngest son is still driving my 2008 SR5 with 225,000 miles on it. Other than a somewhat major AC repair, it’s been nothing but routine maintenance However, that truck is also quite basic and outdated from an interior standpoint in this day and...

Thanks everyone for your replies.

What do you guys think about 2008-2009 LX 570 with low miles and a clean 1 owner carfax? Like between 100k-120k miles and say priced high 20's or around 30?

still available?

I'm trying to land upon the best sweet spot of year vs mileage for a budget of about $30k. Mostly a daily driver. Maybe a little towing of under 5000 lbs. No major offroading planned. I just love these trucks. Any thoughts or suggestions would be very welcome. One other question - what do you...
