TWENTY ONE SERVICE RECORDS, AND A SECOND OWNER WHO KEPT IT TWELVE YEARS
You get home from the Yakima run, press the button, and the power liftgate rises on its own while you are still walking around back with both hands full. Climb in and the genuine wood console insert catches the porch light, the dual zone climate is still holding the temperature you set an hour ago, and the V6 has done what a Lexus V6 does, which is get you there without ever once making it interesting.
This is a 2013 Lexus RX 350 with all wheel drive, stock number 20185B, showing 107,719 miles. The 3.5 liter DOHC V6 with Dual VVT-i runs through a six speed automatic with sequential shift on a 4.398 axle, over four wheel independent suspension with front and rear anti roll bars and 18 inch five spoke aluminum wheels.
THE PART THAT ACTUALLY MATTERS
CARFAX carries twenty one service records on this RX and forty three detailed records in all. No accidents. No damage of any kind. No structural damage, no airbag deployment, no total loss, no odometer rollback, no open recalls, and a title CARFAX guarantees clean through both owners. Both were personal owners, and CARFAX flags both as below average mileage drivers.
It sold new at Lexus of Portland in 2012 and came back there for its 15,000 mile service, a full inspection covering coolant, battery, brakes, CV boots, differential fluid, driveshaft, exhaust, steering and suspension. Lexus of Portland sold it a second time in 2014 as an L/CERTIFIED BY LEXUS vehicle.
The second owner titled it in Richland and simply kept it. Registration renewed every year without a single gap, and the wrenching went almost entirely to Genesis Auto in Kennewick. The list is worth reading: air filter, cabin filter, brake fluid flush, differential fluid flush and a transmission fluid change at 60,067 miles. Oil at 63,944 and 68,627. Tires rotated at 73,454. Brakes checked with an oil change at 80,666. A maintenance inspection with a second transmission fluid change and new wipers at 86,244. Front brake pads and resurfaced front rotors at 91,227. Air filter and oil at 96,117. Rear brake pads and rotors replaced at 96,995. Tires rotated at 98,208 and 103,535 through Tire Factory of Richland. Maintenance inspection and oil at 101,388, and the most recent maintenance inspection with oil and filter at 106,372.
Two transmission services, a differential flush, a brake fluid flush and brakes done at both ends. That is a car somebody planned on keeping.

The original factory warranty has long since expired, so this sells as a used vehicle. What it brings instead is a paper trail most SUVs of this vintage simply cannot produce.
