Nice purchase, I'm sure it cost quite a bit to have a LS in Vietnam.

It is prob $200k brandnew. I can't believe that he had that done on the street. Congratulation.

@DAVEGS4: My 07 was in cleaning and washing progress, they brought it outside for swapping rims and tire sensors for my 08.
@GoHuskers: I got it for 170k$ and paid in cash.

did the 07 give you any problems? Gulf spec is much different than US? i'm just confused at what was the benefit of your trade.

The 07 is in excellent condition, everything runs smoothly. Most of the thing is that I love the color. Then is the manufacturing date, my previous was 3/2007 and also for the fully loaded specs, my 07 didn't come with HDD, Aux port, alcantara headliner, air sus, and the PCS.

your old silver doesn't have air suspension, but the new one does Do you want to install Nav. Override on your new one? I have one extra kit.

The air suspensions are good but that is something I don't really wish to have 'cuz of the price, the roads in VN crack a lot, then hardly can any kind of suspension last for long, the struts in my 07 were mere satisfaction, soft and cheap enough. For the Nav. Override, I may not need it, I don't use navi in VN, but thanks a lot for your offer.
