I spent a year looking at a lot of LX's. To me from what I have observed, it looks like a good deal as long
as it has NO RUST and is in great condition.

 

[BullElk]

It was owned by a family in New Orleans so should not have any rust. I plan to put my eyes on it tomorrow.

 

[cwmoser]

Have you typed in the VIN at Lexus.com to look at its service history?

 

[BullElk]

Oh yea, I have. I didn't see anything alarming. I also sent a text to the previous owner. They said "We loved the car and we were the only owners".

The items below were completed at 131k miles....

My favorite color on the LX - good luck hope it works out for you.

Was just driving from mobile to Nola last week, wish I'd known, had given you a 2nd opinion.

Don't worry, I'm currently barred from buying another vehicle.

 

[Bomar]

I know some of the olive green had paint issues. I will be down in that area in 2 weeks also if you need another set of eyes on it.

 

[BullElk]

Thank you sir Mr. Bomar, As of now I plan to see the LX tomorrow unless another mudder has sniped it from me.

 

[bctlex]

Sounds like a great deal assuming everything else is in good condition. Good luck!

 

[Knox_Overland]

Seems like a good find!?

 

[BullElk]

Forgive me for continuing this and boring you but thought I would post a few pics.

 

[Chuffs]

Looks great, wish I had found it. Let me know if you don't buy it .

 

[vipergrhd]

I hope you buy it by now.

 

[BullElk]

Will do Chuffs. BTW, what is the black square to the right of radio? Some type of remote thingy?

 

[BullElk]

I hope you buy it by now.

As of this second, and if I see no surprises, I plan to make this deal work tomorrow.

 

[vipergrhd]

Air bag indicator for passenger seat? just a guess.

I wanted an LX but got voted out by the wife and kids and up with a lousy ES.

 

[SWUtah]

That would be a good deal at $20k.

 

[RND1]

Wow, that looks super clean. Hope I can find one like that in a few years when my son will be taking my '03! Keep us posted.
