Default I think I found the LS430 I want...need suggestions!

Hello Gang-

After much research and looking everywhere for a nice LS430 ULTRA..I have found 2 of them that I can seriously consider.

Both 2001

One is White/Cream Interior - ~68K Miles
One is Black/Black With rosewood - 65K Miles

The white one was offered to me @ 28K Locally....about 100 Miles away.

The Black one was offered to me @ $26.5K but it is 2000 Miles away!

I think with shipping expenses, they will both be about the same price.

So, should I go with the BLACK and get it shipped or go with the White and pick it up Locally?

What would YOU do..

Also are these GOOD PRICES considering they are BOTH NOT CPO's?

I agree with Henry and Derrick, Mike, you should check out the car in person before you drop 28K on it. As for the colors, I'm sure you know where I stand on that.

Great Idea man...I talked to the lady about it and she now wants to GO with the kids to visit family in Chicago and then driving the car back...I don't know about hauling the kids in the back the whole time though...its got to be rough on them.....
