Used IS-F in NorCal/SF Bay Area Pricing
Sorry if this topic comes up every other day, but looked through the other posts on the topic and just got more confused on a fair price for a used IS-F. This is my second car, but the first without my fathers Asian haggling skills at work so just trying to figure out what is a fair price and how to get it.
Been looking at certified pre-owned in the SF Bay area and the prices just don't seem to even be in the ballpark of what others have been posting. I know its a little pricier out here, but still kinda high.
Here's a couple I have been looking at from the same dealership, both have ML and backup camera:
Certified Used 2008 Lexus IS F
32,669 miles - Obsidian
$48,888
Certified Used 2008 Lexus IS F
43,501 miles - Smoky Granite Mica
$46,888
And at a BMW dealership that is not certified:
Used 2010 Lexus IS F
7,684 miles - Smoky Granite
$51,888
Question about the 2010 that is not certified, carfax came clean and the reason I am getting an IS-F over an M3 or M5 is its reliability, so do you think it is worth the risk given that is has such low mileage even for a higher price? Also, does the warranty from a new Lexus transfer to a second owner and if I am getting it from a BMW dealership (or private seller) where do I get it serviced?
Anyways, going to test drive this weekend and looking to buy in the next couple of weeks so any other advice is welcome. Thanks, look forward to hearing what you guys think and finally getting into an IS-F!
