widowmaker03 Posted June 7, 2011 Share Posted June 7, 2011 Greeting, I'm looking at purchasing a 2008 LS 460 with about 53300 miles on it for about $40,000. Pretty much loaded out. What do you guys think? Note: I own a 1999 LS 400. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Note: I own a 1999 LS 400. Have you looked at Kelley Blue Book for a current market price. That is about the best benchmark unless you can find a regional used car value resource. I usually shop several dealers on line to get a feel of the current value. What are doing with your present car. Keeping, selling, or trading?

widowmaker03 Posted June 7, 2011 Author Share Posted June 7, 2011 Paul, I did a Cars.com and Edmunds search and the car is extremely competitively priced and it includes: Comfort Package, the Navigation System and Advanced Parking Guidance Package, the Navigation System/Mark Levinson Package. I’m leaning on keeping my LS 400 just because I’m a little concerned about the 53K miles on the LS460. I drive about 30 miles each way; so I’m thinking about keeping the LS 400 and have it rack up the 60 miles a day commute. Previous owner was brought the car in often for routine services, based on Car Fax. The car was serviced every 3 months or 5K. Only “issue” I see is the Dealership looked at the door window during every service. I test drove the car and it was super quite. Nothing wrong with the window, controls, door, or seals and I didn't hear any wind noise. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LEXIRX330 Posted June 7, 2011 Share Posted June 7, 2011 I LOVE the LS460! I looked at edmunds TMV price and that price is just about right. Maybe try to get it out the door for 40k. Good luck! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WhitSTer Posted June 12, 2011 Share Posted June 12, 2011 I have an '08 and am real happy with it. You might check and make sure the Valve Spring Recall has been done. Whit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheDrake Posted September 21, 2011 Share Posted September 21, 2011 Purchased a '08 LS460 a couple weeks ago and LOVE it! The best word to describe it is "sublime". I also have an '08 RX350 and just sold an '01 ES300 Coach Edition that I bought new. As a music lover I've always wanted the Levinson system. My LS460 has this and the sound is AMAZING. The automatic doors are also a neat feature.....but not sure what the purpose of this is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
