Hi, this board has helped me decide to pursue my dream of owning an LS 430. I started out considering an ES but decided to indulge myself with the best! Does anyone know the current residual value and money factors being used now? I am looking to lease one with the ultra luxury package, probably in the next month or so. I'm thinking a 2 year lease, with 15000 miles. There dont seem to be too many around here in Northern VA, so I may have to look in neighboring states. Thanks for all the great posts and information!

Would anyone happen to know if it is possible to buy an extended warranty on a 2004 70,000 mile Lexus LS 430 through Lexus? Any advice would be appreciated. Is it worth asking my local Lexus dealer to CPO the car? Thank you. |

Replying to: suzq2 (Feb 23, 2007 3:15 am) Better choice because you save money! I nearly got the LS 460 last month but decided to wait until 2009 when I can get a CPO 2007 Ultra for several thousands less than the premium they are charging now. Also, the LS 600h will be out by then. If you plan to keep the car for a while, you may consider buying the 2004 model because you get more options e.g. smart access (which is not available in the 2003 model). Take a look at Lexus of Silver Spring, MD; they had a sizable inventory and they are good people. I will be glad to give you a contact person there. Good luck. |

going to look at LS430s 1st time this week. 2002 looks like right price range for what i want to spend. dealer has three 2002 CPOs listed on their website 1) 31K miles, $31788, Nav, Levinson sound, 2) 56k miles, $28988, Nav, Levinson sound 3) 55k miles, $28488, NO nav, no Levinson so, what questions should I be asking when looking at these? are there specific maintenance or wear items I should try to make sure are already done? what prices should i be shooting for (i know about TMV, i'm looking for real world what people are seeing)? etc. thx in advance for ideas.

Been getting close to buying a used LS430.I was thinking that after the 460 where in the dealers a while there would be some good deals on the 02-04 LS430's.Was wondering what others have been paying or finding when they get down to offers. I have seen; 03,with 23k miles 33,500 ask 04,with 29k miles 31,900 ask 02,with 22k miles 28,000 ask Bid on a couple on Ebay but have seen some real shady stuff (no reserve car sold then put up next day by same dealer with different id,shill?)and have some concerns but certainly don't want to pay the Lexus dealer used car price. Anyone else been shopping,buying? thanks
