Not mine....Note...it is a salvage title tho, fair warning!

2004 Lexus GX470 Lifted - One of a kind! - - cars & trucks - by...

Up for sale is my 04 Lexus GX 470 which is truly one of a kind. Built for off road adventures and is amazingly comfortable to take across the states. Lifted about 4 inches on Freedom Offroad (FO)...

Bolting on a standard lift kit, roof rack etc. does not make this GX one of a kind. Price is top dollar for an early GX with the less powerful motor, 177k, and a salvage title

^^^ I agree, 100%.

Sold mine (a 2005, clean title with 125k miles and a similar build / minus the front bumper) for $9k less...although that was before they took off in price (sold it 4 years ago?)!

...so maybe not an apples-to-apples comparison, but that's not to say this one is not overpriced by A LOT.

Yup. No surprises here on these stoopid high prices in Seattle. We simply, constantly refer to these inflated prices as “PNW Prices.” It’s something we’ve become used to seeing on the Left Coast.

Cali Prices are just as nutz.

And this one at least provides an interesting comp to a nicer, better priced, similar rig posted right here on the forum by a member... but of course that member is from the South East US, not the PNW.

I bought my GX two years ago for half of that $ here in Oregon. Demand was increasing even then. I had an email alert setup, called the day it popped up, and was at the dealer signing forms as the phone was ringing and they’re saying “someone’s here buying it right now”. PNW Adventure Tax for sure. Plus a lot of people in Seattle have way more $ than time so power to the seller if they can get the $.
