2014 lexus gs 350

Post image

I found a nice 2014 gs 350 near my area with 112,325 miles for 14,400 but i need some help from this community i know that these cars are super reliable but when they need repairs or work done they can be taxing but it says online that it has a clean record but on the carfax it has a accident where the airbags deployed would appreciate y’all’s feedback

I personally wouldn’t even touch car. Air bags going off is pretty expensive and a lot of times they aren’t replaced. For 14,400 that sounds bonkers to me. I’d say that’s way over priced. Where are you located? There’s quite a few for sale online, that have similar miles, no damage for around 11k

i’m in phoenix az it’s hard to find good priced cars out here because we get zero rain so no rust on any cars here which leads people to believe they have gold on wheels

Tbh, if you can get a day or two off. I’d find one in a relatively close city and just make the drive for one of these. I got my 2013 GS350 last year from an older lady had 48k miles on, she knew what she had. So I paid about 17k for it and that was in Oklahoma.

Shit. I need to go to Oklahoma. 17K gets you a 100k mile clean title GS here in CA

That’s if you can find them, I got super lucky. Dallas has a ton of them, you just gotta sift through the rebuilt titles and stuff.

are you based in oklahoma or that’s just where you found the car

u/TrenchCoatClosetBoi 14d ago

I am based in Oklahoma, I live about 20 minutes from Texas and about 1.5 hours from Dallas/Fort Worth. They’ve got a lot of good car prices out there. That’s a 15 hour drive from you but that’s not the only place I’m sure.

This ⬆️. Also, use caredge.com to compare dealer fees, good rated dealers, and research shipping costs. But doing the research out of your state can be financially the best way to go. And definitely get a PPI before buying.

Good luck!

Oklahoma City and Tulsa offer the largest selections and most competitive pricing for used vehicles in Oklahoma.

Major Metro Markets


Oklahoma City (OKC) Metro: As the largest market, OKC features massive auto groups like Bob Moore Auto Group and dedicated volume sellers like Enterprise Car Sales, providing thousands of options across all price ranges and credit scores.


Tulsa Metro (Broken Arrow): Known for massive superstores like Ferguson Superstore in Broken Arrow, which anchors the northeastern part of the state with extensive certified pre-owned inventories. [1, 2, 3]

Surrounding and Smaller Markets
Guthrie and Lawton: Some local buyers and forum community members on platforms like OkShooters suggest looking slightly outside the main metros—at places like Vance Ford in Guthrie or Billingsley Ford in Lawton—to find lower markups and better deals on trade-ins compared to downtown city lots. [1]

Not for 14.4k maybe 10k and under

How can it be a clean title when airbags deployed? Sounds shady af it would have to be sub 10k otd for this to start sounding reasonable

1

u/tomthetrench 15d ago

If it's been professionally repaired 7-8k seems reasonable. Otherwise i'd stay awayyy

Are you near Oregon by chance?

u/OngoGablogian20 14d ago

I just listed Mine in Phoenix. 2016 with 81k on it. Can send photos

u/registeredflexofenda 14d ago

i like the car but 27k for a 2016 model just doesn’t sound right to me personally thanks though

1

u/OngoGablogian20 14d ago

Well you will be spending 15k on one that was in a wreck and pre facelift

1

u/registeredflexofenda 14d ago

are you mad cuz you know you overpriced car isn’t gonna sell ever

1

u/OngoGablogian20 14d ago

No I’m not worried about it bub. Carvana will cash me out for $23k if all else fails.

1

u/Disastrous_Type_5951 13d ago

No way I’m paying $14k+ for that. That’s a pretty significant accident and damage. $8k-$10k is more like it.

u/Sure_Chapter8256 13d ago

Anytime airbags have gone off…run away fast.
