Default Missing Features..

When I purchased my LS (CPO), I didn't study enough on the options. So my car doesn't have:

1. Air suspension
2. UL extras
3. Seat cooling
4. Saddle interior
5. Parking sensors
6. Back-up camera
7. Euro suspension




but I do have NAV and ML (that doesn't provide enough bass ).

It would be costly to buy these extras and add them to my car.

Should I just sell my '02, and buy a '04 UL? Getting the facelift version along with No. 1-7 ?

If those are truly what you want, selling and rebuying makes more sense and probably cheaper.

I forgot to mention that my car has been so reliable, I am reluctant to sell it. Because I'm afraid I'd feel stupid if I get a new LS with all those features, but turns out to be problem-plagued! ......Unlikely?

I have an 01 with no problems. Trade in is a wise choice and you would not regret it. As most in this forum will tell you, the added features of a UL can't really be enjoyed until you have owned a UL. You will appreciate the car. Go for it!!!!!

adding the features will cost you arm and leg from factory,
here are your 2 choices,

add after market option:
Air 3000 - 5000
back up camera 100-300
Cooling seat? I don;t know about this one
After market subs are cheap.
Saddel seats from Leatherseats.com 1000 ?

trade your car in and get a 04+ UL
