Default New here, thinking about a GX, preferably blue with sports package

I know that GX models with the sports package are already super rare, but is there any chance that someone out there has seen or has a Blue GX470 with sport package in good shape? Not even for sale, I just want to know if they even exist! I tried searching, but I wasn't able to find anything.

They'll exist, but if you narrow down your search too far you'll still be looking in a year from now, lol. Back when i used to sell cars, they'd say "You don't get to pick the color of your used car".

Lol I know, right? Well I will just have to keep looking I suppose. There is a blue model here locally. And a sport model in silver I should just go check out.

Dark Blue. I'm potentially looking for one with gray interior, and ideally the sport package. I've seen one for sale in Michigan, but as I live in Utah, getting it would be a little difficult. I'd also be concerned that it has a lot of rust.

Yeah, I think I saw that one as well. But it doesn't seem to have gray interior. Thanks tho!

I was curious so I went and saw and drove it. It was a one accident car that had a slight vibration in steering wheel that I didn't like plus one of the axle boots was loose and starting to leak. The salesman said 13,200 was as low as he could go. At the same time I was looking at one in TX and going back and forth to decide what to do. Ended up getting the TX one and no regret- much cleaner and no rust and way better service records with no accidents.

I gave up on getting a particular GX color so last week I picked up a black one. Love the car not so much the color. Recommend you buy a western car particularly from the desert areas that have no rust. Good luck!

What's funny is that on Sunday night, I found the car I was looking for in CO. But it was already sold by the time I got a response.
