For Sale Most recent 200 Series purchase prices (7 Viewers)

Hi! IF you're willing to share, I thought it might be helpful for the rest of us to better understand what the market prices are for the 200 series (and LX 570 I suppose). I'm personally looking for one, have found a few, and curious what others' purchase prices have been so I can negotiate (or not) properly.

Please share purchase price, year, mileage at purchase, and location (east/west/south, etc...)

Thanks and happy hunting for those also looking.

Interesting choice of color... and look at that vin tag.

it looks ... extracted, then reapplied ? *edit - is that light blue ? I think im color blind

Looks like it, but based on bleeding of blue, it was probably reapplied prior to being painted blue. Maybe there is another explanation, but very weird.

...with few or no modern safety features.

Which modern safety features are missing?

Any thoughts about this one here? Florida car for first 6 or 7 years, then Michigan. Seems to have a great history of lexus dealership care.

looks to have extensive service history at local Lexus dealership until last year june 2022. I don't know how i feel about the listing though stating that suspension has been fiddled with on their end. Price wise seems reasonable? Owned in Ada which is a nice area usually with money.

"JUST SERVICED:
Maintenance inspection completed
Oil and filter changed
Rear shock absorber(s) replaced
Remove & Replace Suspension Accumulators
REPLACED ALL 4 ACCUMULATORS
Four tires balanced
Four tires mounted
Four wheel alignment performed
Brakes checked
Fluids checked
Battery/charging system checked
Drivability/performance checked"

That is a lot to pay for an 08 regardless of miles.
Add the recent AHC service, I'd keep looking.

Did the dealer say "Four wheel alignment performed"? You can only align the front only so it's front end alignment.

MAke sure there is a record of front timing chain housing has been resealed properly. 08 and 09 has a factory defect of timing chain cover leak. It cost $$$ to get it done right.

Best to look for 2010+ then?

Another one seems low miles, but was a new york car so may have some rust issues. Quick thoughts on this?

How about starting your own "help me buy a cruiser" thread instead of hijacking this one?

sorry i thought this was a place used for discussion of prices and the like. I wouldn't call it hijacking of anything. There's 198 pages of people analyzing cars for sale.

Actually -most- people are reporting sold prices (as the first post states the intent) and then people discuss those.

And, yeah, I'd call the past 4 days (and forseeable future) being nothing but you/your questions being a hijack.

You do you, though.

With the new GX and LC around the corner I think 200 prices will continue to drop for the general consumer. Prices will be defined by enthusiasts but I still think over the next 2-5 years prices will come down to where more people will be buying them.

I think I threw up in my mouth a bit

Maybe someone's first car in high school was an old 77 Ford Bronco in Baby Blue????

Drop your man-card at the door....

I haven't ever said this about a LC, but....that is awful...just awful. The word abomination comes to mind.

Based on location, I'm guessing it belonged to a Tar Heel.

May just be coincidence but I have noticed a handful of new 200 Series listings pop up over the last couple of days since the 250 reveal. Perhaps folks that have decided to trade/sell while the market is still up?

Yup,

I posted this in the other thread but here it is again.

Might be just a coincidence, but few days ago Carmax had only 1 LC for sale, today and after LC250 (Prado) announcement, take a look:

probably people cancelled their reserves / holds.

Also, on another site looks like someone returned LC they recently bought and is back on sale.

Looks like returns because I had viewed everything there previously and they had been removed for sales. There were only 2 for sale on Mon/Tues and now I see the same 5 as above.
