VikingLS Posted May 2, 2007 Share Posted May 2, 2007 Never had a Lexus, but plenty of Toyotas, including my 95 Avalon with 197k. Here in the Midwest, I am currently looking hard at a 98 GS300 with the following characteristics: * 140k miles * 2 owner, 2nd purchased CPO very early * 100k service has been performed * Timing Belt has been replaced * Service outside of oil changes performed at dealer - owner has service records * The radio LCD display is fading * Options: Leather, heated seats, CD, moon * Asking price 7300 With the service history, and planning to put 25k per year on the car, does this make sense to do? Is the LCD issue a quick fix? Also what are some other things to investigate on the '98? Lastly, does the 98 have an Interference Engine? Many thanks!

menappi Posted May 3, 2007 Share Posted May 3, 2007 Sorry don't know a lot about the Gs', but I know the radio backlight can be fixed, you need new leds in the back (at least that was the fix on SC's). 140k miles isn't a lot, I would expect it to go well into the 200's, prob up to 3000 if you take care of it. Seems like a pretty good deal if you ask me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
olddog Posted May 4, 2007 Share Posted May 4, 2007 mileage for these cars is not a factor to consider. so far as the history shows it was well-maintained. good luck Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
