A 2005 RX 330 IN CALIFORNIA Built in Japan
If you are in the market for a JAPAN built 2005 RX 330, you are in luck. This has been my personal vehicle since December 2008. The RX was purchased by me for my personal vehicle, because I felt this vehicle would be the safest to transport my family. This RX was purchased from Longo Lexus in El Monte. It is the 1st Lexus I purchased from Longo. A great dealership. Two owner, I am the second owner. Non-smoker No towing Normal use
WHY BUY A VEHICLE FROM AN INDIVIDUAL INSTEAD OF A DEALER?
While there is certainly nothing inherently wrong with buying from a dealer, there are advantages to buying from an individual. You get to actually meet the person who owned and cared for the car. You are not paying the markup that a dealer has added to the vehicle (this car, with this mileage would easily be listed over $10,000)
HOW THE CAR WAS USED AND CARED FOR
Important Point To Consider: This car was purchased CPO, not leased! I paid cash for the car with the intent of keeping it for many years. Now, why is that important? When a car is leased, the lessee drives the car off of the dealer lot knowing that they will most likely turn the car in at the end of the lease. There is NO sense of ownership in the car. NO sense of investment. NO motivation or incentive to go the extra mile to care for the car.
I am a "car guy" so I enjoy taking care of my cars and motorcycles. The RX has been kept washed, waxed and the leather surfaces cleaned and treated on a regular basis and a clear bra installed on the front to protect the finish. Oil and filter changed every 5,000 miles. I last changed both air filters at about 110,000 miles. The tires have about 2,000 miles on them (I think, I will have to verify that one). The tires were purchased and installed at COSTCO.
Important Point To Consider: This car was built in Japan, not Canada. I point that out because in 2005 Lexus built some RXs in Canada and there were reports of quality issues. These issues have since been resolved, but if you are buying a 2005 model you should ALWAYS look for one that was built in Japan. You can tell by the VIN number of the vehicle. If the first letter/number is "J", then it was built in Japan
There is no doubt in my mind that this vehicle, if cared for properly.. I know of several people with more than 200,000 miles on their Lexus vehicles. These are amazing cars.
CASH DEAL
Every time I have sold a car or motorcycle I have insisted on a cash transaction. It has always served me well in the past, so I would like to do the same on this vehicle. Therefore, I do not accept a check, cashier's check, certified check or anything other than good old hard cash. We will meet at my bank (about a block from where I live) and exchange cash and sign over the title there. By the way, the title is clear with no lien holder.
HAGGLE-FREE/HASSLE-FREE
Do you hate haggling? Me too. So I make it very easy. The price of the car is $7,500. If you can find another '05 RX for $1,000 less and price is that important to you, buy it. I am prepared to keep this car as long as necessary to find the right buyer who places a value on how well the car has been cared for, and the low mileage.
SUMMARY
If you are interested in this car, contact me to set up an appointment to see the car in person.
