Hi All,
Newbie, but I needed to share my find! We originally were looking for a clean 2006/7 100 series with low miles at a reasonable price, $14-17K. I searched far and wide, for a long time (4-5 months) but never came across one that I really felt good about. We expanded our search and started looking at the GX, my wife actually liked the 120 more than the 100.
The search started and low and behold after a month I found it, about 5 miles from my house, from an 81-year-old woman (seriously) who stopped driving. My find, a 2008 GX with 64,800 garage kept miles. The timing belt and new tires were done in late 2017 when it had 58,500 miles. The owner just had all the fluids changed (trans, diff, etc.) and the dealership put in new shaft seals along with rotors/brakes. It was maintained exclusively at Lexus - platinum contract and everything is documented on Lexus’s site from the first 5K oil change to the most recent service. There are some small parking lot dings on the outside, the inside is damn near perfect (no rear DVD) and comes with third row seats that were never used. She was asking $15,500 and I paid it without haggling. We’re picking it up in a few days and I’ll post pictures, now I have to decide if this is worth just keeping the way it is or doing a small build.
