GarageScout Take
Its full Ultra Luxury hardware is the separator: working height-adjustable air suspension, laser cruise, and rear seats with power adjustment, heating, massage, memory, and a cold box. At 144,500 miles, it sits near the high end for this generation. The tradeoff is age-related wear and faults, including an inoperative driver’s seat heater, intermittent right-rear power lock, inoperative CD player, and mismatched front passenger seat belt.
Strengths
- Accident-free Carfax history with no mileage discrepancies and warm-climate ownership.
- Lexus-dealer service history with OEM parts, including timing belt, water pump, and V-belt replacement at 89,000 miles.
- Recent major service includes cylinder head gaskets, valve covers and gaskets, engine mounts, intake manifold gaskets, knock sensors, and a mass airflow sensor.
Watch For
- The exterior has chips and scratches, and the windshield has a repaired chip.
- There is wear on the seats and interior touch points, and the driver's seat heater is inoperative.
- The right-front seat belt is mismatched in color, and the fasten-seat-belt warning appears intermittently.
- The CD player is inoperative, the right-rear power lock works intermittently, and the smog sensor defaults to recirculation mode.
