Too bad I'm not in the position to buy this thing because it looks to be fabulous condition.

 
Steering wheel needs replacement.
Roof rack parts missing.
Check to see how often it’s used for towing. Those might be hard miles.
Exhaust noisemaker?
Bull Bar?
 
Thanks for the heads up TLC, I probably wouldn't have known to ask about the towing. Should these 100s have had the timing belt/water pump service after this many years, even with the low mileage?
 
The factory recommended maintenance interval is 90,000 miles or 9 years for the timing belt.
 

It's back. I spoke to the owner this morning. It appears legit. To TLCJC- why do you think steering wheel needs replacement?
 
Pretty sure a dealer or any potential buyer will scoop this up full price (I think it’s an incredible deal)

Btw that looks like an oem stainless steel tip on the exhaust - my wife’s 05 LX came with it. Adds .1 horsepower and makes the trucks belly more aerodynamic.
 
I talked to the seller. He was very reluctant to answer all my questions. I have asked him for the VIN# (3) times and he still has not sent it to me.... Something seems off. If anyone lives out there and willing to check it out please let me know. Thanks.

What questions did he not answer?

And does anyone know why @TLCJC said that the steering wheel needed to be replaced?
 
I was asking him if everything worked he said ya, I then asked about service history and he said come look at the car and if I like it I can buy it. I have since text (3) times so I could get the VIN and he will not reply. I am not sure about the steering wheel
 
I had a similar conversation with him yesterday. I asked about the service history and he just said, " brakes, tires...I did it all. All it needs is an oil change. Come check it out" I asked for the VIN and he was reluctant to give it to me as well... Said he would text it to me... I never got it.
 
I communicated with the seller as well. My spidey sense went to high alert. I asked him to provide me with pics of undercarriage and engine. He sent both after multiple requests. They engine bay pic appeared to be a very clean LX 470 engine. The undercarriage pic was not of a LX 470 under body, or at least not any angle I could reconcile.

He has texted several times. I’m going to pass on pursuing based on the feeling I’m getting.

Can someone confirm if thr undercarriage is a LX? it is suspiciously clean even for a California car, it looks like it's been painted? The engine compartment has obviously been freshly detailed and sprayed with silicone.
