Checked out a 2008 LX570, 1 owner, no accidents, Louisiana vehicle, 80k mi for $30K. Problem is there aren't many service records and Carfax says it was a Corporate vehicle. Didn't see many records on Carfax, Auto Check or Lexus Drivers other than registration and recall. I wonder if this was a rental or a corporate vehicle. First 3 years it had 52k mi on it and the last 9 years it's only had 26k mi on it. The history is lacking but the thing is PRISTINE. Headlights aren't fogged up or hazy, paint still seems good without any fading, and the frame is rust free. Suspension components seem tight. Interior is very well kept other than some things like the little coin and USB/aux doors a little sloppy. Other than that everything mechanically & electronically (windows, mirrors, sunroof, hvac, seat heaters, etc) seemed to be well appointed and working. 4WD system engaged, disengaged, locked without problem. Although it took a few tries to get it to go smoothly, doubt it's ever been in 4Lo it's entire life. I'm having a nearby Lexus do a PPI on it to be sure.
What do you guys think? Would you be wary of a vehicle with such low miles, in that condition that doesn't have many records? Other concern was a flood vehicle but Carfax and Autocheck didn't report it. I hope to get more information and insight from the Lexus tech when it gets the PPI done.
