FWhomeboy...I know it's on the other side of the country. I know it's a year older than you want.

However...LOOK AT IT!!!!

This is your old car, and my current one, but in a 2007 model.
75K miles.

A bit overpriced IMO, which means he has room to move, but Levinson, sport, https://boise.craigslist.org/ctd/d/2...437197666.html .

I don't know what that is hanging down, but having just spent several hours underneath mine, I know there are a few access panels in the underbody cladding. I'd wager it needs to be screwed back in. The door cards must've been replaced because they're mighty clean-looking.

However...I WANT THOSE WHEELS! Will trade ya five hypersilver ones for 'em.

Cross-country shipping isn't horribly expensive, either. I want to say it'd be under a grand to get it to you.

Someone bought the car this morning. Well, they put down a deposit. The dealership sent me an email and told me this morning. The hunt is still on.

That was the car I was going to look at in Raleigh NC, just an hour away.

My bank won't go beyond 10 years so, now, I have to go 2008 or newer. It also has to be under 100K miles.

The door panels are scratched up a bit but still looks good.

How did you happen to find that way out there? Do you have a Nationwide search for Craigslist? Wait a minute. I found the way to do it. I'm on it now.

You gotta move fast when you see a good one. When I bought mine a few weeks ago, the dealer hadn't posted pics yet, but I looked at the service history on Lexus Drivers and made an appointment to test drive it the next day. After I signed the paperwork, the salesman said he was going to the lounge area to tell the guy who was next in line for a test drive that the car was sold
