I love it. I paid $33k and the salesman personally delivered it to my house in NW ChicagoLand in 22 hours from time of purchase. The service was fantastic. I’m toying with the idea of taking the fender flares off but they do keep road salt off the vulnerable body parts here in the rust belt.
It was 1 owner, a dentist from Dallas, every single service done at the dealer 1k miles before due, including batteries, tires and oil every 5K. He had the 6yr/100k mi Lexus Platinum warranty so nothing was ever left unaddressed. Plus all the build bits and no installation costs. ;)

Something about dentists owning LX's :)
 
Just to clarify, when removing the side steps, the LC rocker panels aren't necessary for anything other than looks. They're thin plastic and aren't doing any protecting of anything but cost about $700 a pair. The body area they cover is already paint matched steel. Even if that area (which is pretty high up) did get scraped beyond what paint could handle, the side steps are going back on when I sell.

best thing about the LC is it only cost me $80 to get it serviced at a Toyota dealer. Considering it takes 8 quarts of synthetic oil, thats really cheap. They also rotate the tires, top off all other fluids, and will replace wiper blades inserts if needed. Usually takes about an hour.

I have a 13 with vented seats. LX seats are still better.
