Buying a high mileage (130K) Lexus GS450H?

I'm planning to buy a 2008 Lexus GS-450H. It has already done 130K miles (mostly on motorways) and has a complete Lexus Service History. Is 130K very high mileage for 450H?

Probably not. Toyota has been seeing hybrids with 400k+ miles on them. All depends on the state of the battery, which is very expensive to replace.
