He said the Leather is near perfect, but, a couple of minor blemishes on the exterior. The car is 10 years old. Oh, BTW, the mats are black. I got my old ones anyway.

He also said the rear seat DVD's work and the rear seat heat/cool works. The soft close doors work too. So far so good.

No problem man. We had some slight drama when I got there since they couldn't find the car. It wasn't where it was supposed to be with the other Lexus cars. They had me sitting for a bit while they hunted it down. Turns out it was in the back. When we got it I noted the hold ticket for 1/31 for someone named Keith, so that's probably why it was in the back and why it disappeared on you. Someone was going to snag it, but didn't or it fell through.

I'm actually pretty impressed with the condition of that car. Its 10 years old, but you'd never know it from the interior. Especially since its the light interior, those are hard to keep clean. Its got a small rock pockmark on the rear passenger side bumper, but that's about all I saw.

All the electronics work it seems, air ride goes to high height so the compressor is good. Its got some crap tires on it, but they can be replaced. Seats all move, heaters and coolers work, rear seat entertainment turns on. mirrors fold, doors soft close. The spare has the right rim, its the original though so that's gotta go. ML sounds good, no buzzy's anywhere that I heard. Quiet on the freeway, didn't hear wind noise. Drives straight, brakes threw me for a loop for a moment as I'm used to the grabby F-sport ones, but they seem to work as expected.

I pretty much poked, prodded and touched everything on the car. I think its a good one.Just remember that you have that 30 days of free warranty so mess with everything to find anything that I might have missed so they can sort that out for you. Also, I'd see what they want for a Maxcare extended warranty on it since its 10 years old. If its not too awful, I might get it, that warranty is no-BS awesome and they cover darn near everything that isn't a wearable part (brakes, hoses, etc).

So, where can I get a set of those P7's for 300 Bucks a set. That's all the money I got left? Now, let's see how good this community really is.

I'm still amazed how it could have so little damage and be totaled. When they called and told me that the wiring harness cost over 5K to replace............ I was really bummed about that. The Insurance company hooked me up but, I still hated losing my car. Oh well, On to the next one. Thanks Shad034.
