Year: 2002
Make: Lexus
Model: LX470
Miles: 166,100
Price: $11,500 without the Rock Warriors; $13,000 with. Final price, no negotiation, please don't ask as the answer is no.
I have a 2002 Lexus LX470 with 166,100 miles that I drove back from AZ to MN in late January. I flew down and had a lot of stuff to haul and wasn't interested in renting so purchased this while I was down there. It was a Texas vehicle the first 3.5 years of its life and then AZ the remainder.
I have the Carfax on it which shows:
- Very good maintenance history
- Unknown accident on 5/30/2007
- Minor Right Front Accident @ 141k-147
- The only panel missing the VIN sticker is the right front quarter panel, which corresponds with the diagram included on the Carfax
- Timing Belt done @ 125k
- New Geolander A/T Tires @ 159k
Under my ownership (160k+):
- Alignment at Lexus of Chandler
- Transmission Fluid & Filter Replaced
- Upper and Lower Radiator Hoses & Clamps
- BT45-TOY Bluetooth adapter for stock navigation radio + Aux-In
- Cabin Air Filters
- Fuel Filter
- Air Filter
- Hood & Rear Gate Struts
- AHC (Automatic Height Control) Fluid Flush & Fill
- AHC System and Torsion bar adjusted to within spec (sceen shot below)
- Front from bottom lip of rim to bottom lip of fender: 28 3/8"
- Rear from bottom lip of rim to bottom lip of fender: 29 1/4"
- Running Board Lights Replaced
- Cabin and Gauge Cluster lights replaced with LEDs
- Front & Rear Brakes
- Second Key with working remote (Owners Manual still has the Valet key)
- Center Diff Lock Indicator Switch
- Headliner
- Radiator
- 166k: Rock Warrior wheels with Firestone Destination X/T 275/70/17 tires mounted with Slee purchased SpiderTrax 1.25" spacers
This is a well sorted, great riding, driving, and running vehicle. It is comfortable as can be at any speed. The Height Control and Suspension adjustments work perfectly. Heat is hot, A/C blows cold. Navigation is certainly outdated, but with the BT45 unit, it is somewhat modernized and you can receive and make calls through the speaker system.
This is a used vehicle, so there are signs of what I would call normal wear and tear for being 18 years old. Given it's a southern vehicle, rust isn't a concern and the underneath looks clean as can be. The only thing that doesn't work currently, although I'm looking into it, is the moonroof. The motor works, but the window does not open/close. The headliner had a TV/DVD unit that was shorting the interior lights so I removed it and replaced it with a good, used one.
3.25.2020 Update: Price drop from the $13k to a more realistic $11k. I had an emotional price on it given I didn't want to sell. Still don't and don't need to. I will not take less. I think it's a fair price for it as is.
4.12.2020 Update: I replaced the engine oil and filter, front and rear differential, and transfer case fluids. I'm an AMSOIL snob and even though I'm trying to sell this, that's what it got.
4.28.2020 Update: Rear brake pads replaced, parking brakes adjusted. Various interior/switch lights replaced with LEDs. And price drop to $10,500. I haven't had time to replace/repair the headliner. There's a couple available locally in the Minneapolis/St. Paul area for $250.
5.7.2020 Update: New front brakes, an instrument cluster full of LEDs, a second key (I only got 1 when I bought it), and a new center diff lock indicator switch.
5.14.2020 Update: Sorry for the misrepresentation on price as I meant to put $10,750 and not $10,250 for buying it with not fixing the headliner. To make it easier, I'm going to say $10,500, as is with the existing headliner. No further price adjustments down. That is my bottom of bottom price. I will not accept less.
6.2.2020 Update: New Radiator installed (old one developed a leak, so I replaced it), new-to-it headliner, M2V2 Ram mount, and re-greased CV with McMaster-Carr clamps and Redline CV-2 grease. Because of this, the price is now $11,500 firm.
7.29.2020 Update: New-to-me Rock Warriors in excellent condition with Firestone Destination X/T 275/70/17 mounted with Slee purchased SpiderTrax 1.25" spacers.
