I bought a cherry GX470 last year. By cherry, I mean damn near mint. Thing rides fantastic, looks great and has a long life ahead of it. You will be pleased with what you bought, assuming it has been properly cared for.
I am so far. The car fax that came with it shows mostly dealer servicing.
I only had a few days to find something and internet Lexus horror stories compared to BMW and Mercedes are almost non existent so I added that up with my previous experience and hoped for the best. It's an air ride car so I was concerned about that a little. Cam chain now instead of a belt and no resulting tensioner issues so that was a plus I think but then I discover it uses a combination of port and direct fuel injection. Not sure about long-term reliability with that but again no Google explosion when you do a search.
