Appologies if this is not the right place to post this. Thoughts on this LX in an area they salt the roads. I know it wouldn't fly in the Southwest, but is this bad enough to pass on for the Northeast?

Appreciate it, thank you!In my experience, it seems that dealers in the rust-belt seem to ask just as much as dealers in non-rusty areas. I would want a price that reflected the hours that I would have to spend underneath to address that.
That said, it does appear to be doable - just more work than I would want.
Compare that with the cost of flying across country to secure one in better shape....
Only 130k and they are asking $21k for it. No idea on maintenance history, I've requested it from themHave the AHC globes already been replaced before? If they have then the replacements are even looking somewhat rough. If the gas tank skid is looking like that you can expect the front skids are toast and need to be replaced.
How many miles are on it? Like ^ said, looks do-able but needs quite a bit of labor to get it to a good place. Looks to be on the cusp of breaking bolts in the bad areas.
If you can get the VIN...Only 130k and they are asking $21k for it. No idea on maintenance history, I've requested it from them
Lexi’s owners can’t look up the dealer service history of any L vehicle on the owner’s site like Toyota?If you can get the VIN...
And, sweet talk the right person at your local Lexus dealership, you can get maintenance records. Limited to Lexus dealers only, of course.
Highjacking this thread as I have a similar situation.
I normally have the “if you have to ask, it’s too much” mindset. But I’m considering one that has me questioning my sanity.
2015 LX with 95k miles. Great maintenance history with all fluids be replaced at 75k miles. Interior and exterior are 9 out of 10. From a used car dealer and the dealer has been very up front and offered to bring it to a nearby Lexus dealership for a PPI without me even asking about a third party inspection. Basically it checks all boxes except for some corrosion. I’m in Maine and there is no way around rust so just wondering if I’m being too picky.
Thoughts?

Already on it. Between that and the Carfax report, I was able to see most of the required service. The 30k to 60k range is a bit vague but it starts going back to a Lexus dealer for service after that. It's the corrosion that is slowing me down on this one.Hit up Lexus.com with the vin to view previous dealer work.
