Came back from work to find 3 white IS F-Sports

Hello everyone, I’m back looking for everyone’s opinion before I pull the trigger on this 2023 Lexus IS 350 F SPORT AWD.

I’ve been shopping for a 2023+ IS 350 AWD for a while and I think I found one that checks almost every box, but I’d appreciate some opinions before I commit.

2023 Lexus IS 350 F SPORT AWD
● Ultra White / Circuit Red interior
● 24,426 miles
● 1-owner personal lease
● Clean CARFAX (no accidents or damage)
● Original MSRP: ~$55,800

Options:
● F SPORT Handling Package (AVS)
● Mark Levinson audio
● Triple Beam LED headlights
● Navigation
● Memory Package
● Moonroof
● Intuitive Parking Assist with Auto Braking

The CARFAX shows consistent maintenance, mostly at the Lexus dealer. One thing I noticed is the steering rack was replaced under warranty around 17k miles and the car also had an alignment and three tires replaced around that time. Everything else looks clean.

The dealer’s pricing is:
Selling price: $45,598
Doc fee: $499
Total before tax: $46,097
I’m in Massachusetts, so after the 6.25% sales tax I’m looking at roughly a $49k out-the-door price before registration.

A few questions for people who know these cars:

1. Does this seem like a fair deal, or would you hold out for something better?
2. What would you realistically try to negotiate the selling price down to?
3. Would the steering rack replacement concern you if it was done by a Lexus dealer under warranty?
4. Is there anything specific I should inspect or ask about before buying?

I’ve looked at quite a few IS 350s over the past few months, and this is by far the best-equipped one I’ve found. I’m just trying to make sure I’m not overlooking anything before I move forward. Thanks!

I daily the car and these are both the street variants. Either figs or rr racing.

I just bought my first Lexus not too long ago and realized only the left side of my radio ( Climate, Radio, DISP, and Info ) works. And the right side doesn't at all, no screen either. It just shows the message " The external system is not connected ". I checked all radio fuses with a multimeter while set on continuity ( speaker logo ) it beeps and displays (.02). Which I believe means the fuse is good. I also pulled out the radio and didn't see anything unplugged.

Does anyone/ did anyone have this issue? Any advice would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks

Hey everyone! I have a 2019 Lexus IS 300 RWD that’s currently on the stock 17” wheels. I’m upgrading to 18x9.5 Enkei T6R wheels (+35 offset) and I’m not sure what tire size I should go with.
My goals are:
Daily driving with good comfort
Good grip
No rubbing on stock suspension
Clean, flush fitment
I’ve been looking at sizes like 245/40R18, 255/35R18, and 265/35R18, but I’m not sure which would be the best choice.
What tire size would you recommend for all four corners? If you’re running a similar setup, I’d love to see photos and hear your experience.

Thanks in advance!

2021 AWD IS 350 Caviar with (Flare) Red Interior. Listed for Just under 29k with over 110k miles. Thoughts?

CD player cover will not open. Any suggestions?

Gotta take a better video but I’m wondering if the meter would round out entirely if I do a donut.
