Hi Chaps,
It seems we have 2 things in common, We love our Lexus' and shortly I will be a resident of the US of A too.
I'm moving to Illinois, in the Chicago to Bloomington area (working in Joliet).
I will be looking to buy two cars, a replacement for my S1 LS400 - probably another LS400!, and something with a 3rd row.
What I'd like to ask you guys is...
1. how to buy a $5-6K lexus in the US, what to look out for, I'm fine with the car mechanicals ect, I'm worried about service history, what the hell is carfax and things to do with the deal so I don't get ripped off, also insurance.
2. What's the most car for the money and reliable ect for $8-9K with a 3rd row? I need space for 4 adults + 2kids + luggage to and from the airport once a month and weekend outings, you know the score.
Any help would be gratly appreciated!
Thanks,
Alex JB.
