Good morning-
I am with a little bit of excitement and hesitation selling my LX 470 today. I love it for its looks and boring reliability. But for the last year or so the 200 has been calling me like some siren in the distance.
It really started with me seeing a heritage tastefully built blow by me (in the LX) on the highway and it had not seen the newer ones yet. Knowing I'd have to move a few toys to make that happen I decided my LX and a small bundle of cash could find me a suitable 200. I have it narrowed down to a few with one really standing out.
Having been a 100 owner lurking in here for a while, I read all of the sticky and the daily stuff with the gremlins for a 200. I do own a 21 Tundra TRD Pro and have had others with the 5.7. I know the motor.
I am going to look at the number one candidate today. I already looked up the VIN and it has been serviced from 0-170k every 5000 miles by the Lexus or Toyota dealers for the two previous owners. I did not see any AHC , starter, or radiator replacement unfortunately. I know what to look for when it comes to rust and such.
Are there any last little things you'd have me look at while i'm in it? Things to do that might signal problems down the road? Any help would be appreciated.
I am looking forward to learning the new platform first hand.
