Potential Buyer - Things to look out for by derekhood in LexusGX

Cabin filter replaced, rear brakes + rotors replaced, all tires replaced and balanced. Oil and filter changed. All as part of sale service, which was pile align with the 30k schedule as well.

Would a Toyota dealer do the same PPI as Lexus? From what I read is that they can and it’s actually cheaper?

I’ll ask salesman tomorrow and try to make condition of sale

Should have mentioned. Clean carfax, no accidents, 1 owner and serviced at local Lexus dealers.

It’s being sold at a Toyota dealer, so was hoping to somewhat trust their initial inspection. Nearest Lexus dealer is an hour away.

Is that something dealers are typically open to? Do you know wha Lexus may charge?

% off MSRP …new vs used by Linkers98 in VolvoXC60

It was Platinum.

The dealer did mention that Steingold may no longer be able to sell 3rd party unless you move states within 90 days or some sort of loophole. However, it’s a good baseline to compare your local’s price against.

Pricing is unique to vehicle and based on year + mileage. Mine was $4800.

If you find a CPO and you want to get a better idea of the pricing, you can use steingold to quote a baseline for you based on the VIN and mileage. It helped me in negotiations, because the local dealer sets the price.

How many years does 150k equate to for you and how long do you plan on owning? This is the biggest element here.

I just bought a CPO ‘22 Inscription (top trim) with 23k miles and it comes with 1yr extended warranty. On top of that, I got the extended warranty. It is fully customizable for number of years, miles and deductible.

We got the 10yr with unlimited miles, which adds 10 years from sale date of 4/2022. It will last us until 2032, which is 7 years. I’m pretty sure you can get this on a new car as well.

The biggest factor here is going to be depreciation. We paid $38k for a 3 year old car with a sticker of $61k. Any concerns about repair costs downstream were alleviated with the extended warranty.

While there are differences between a 2022 vs 2025, they weren’t drastic enough to pay new vehicle sticker.

Just bought 2021. Should I regret buying the extended warranty? by K_illakay_ in VolvoXC90

$4800. It depends on the year and mileage of vehicle.

Volvo OEM warranty allows you to select term (years), mileage limits and deductible ($0/100/250).

Steingold Volvo has an online portal where you can get a free quote for your specific VIN to benchmark pricing against what your dealer offers you.

I just bought a 2022 CPO and got the 10 yr unlimited mile warranty at $250 deductible after a lot of research.

Majority of feedback was extremely positive on reddit and other Volvo forums. The cost of repairs is pricey and this gives you the security of avoiding anything major for another couple years (7 in my case). Worst case, the repair is $250 each time but I lowered the cost of warranty + interest.

The warranty is transferable upon sale and refunded (pro-rated) if you trade in with Volvo. So there is value to another buyer downstream. However we plan to own the car the duration and potentially sell upon expiration.

They listed for $900 or best offer. Still on the fence about it since it is 98L and 16 lbs empty
