First of all..."hi" as I am new to the forum. I've had an LS 400 and a GS 300, both excellent cars with relitively low maintenance that I sold with 175K plus miles on both., I just bought a 2000 RX 300 with 130K miles. Clean, two owners (the one I purchased from had it for the last 7 years), good service records (timing belt, fuel pump, new brakes, new tires and recent tune up). I bought it for what I would consider a good deal at $7900. But after reading these forums, I sounds all but certain I'll be needing to replace the transmission. Am I being unreasonable to think this may not be an issue? The car does not have a tow package and seems to drive out great. My plan was to drive it a year or two and then pass on to my son who will then be of driving age. Can anyone ease my concerns?
Thanks in advance.
