Default Newbie CPO SC430 Owner

Hello everyone. I've admired these cars for years and finally pulled the trigger last night on a CPO 2007 Black Saphire Pearl/Ecru/Walnut with 35K miles. The Forum was a great help in learning before leaping. I feel confident that I found a nice clean car with relatively low miles at a fair price. Just wanted to introduce myself and say thanks for creating a place to come for answers and advice. That said, I'll do my best not to ask annoying newbie questions since I know how to use the search function.
Looking forward to the SC430 experience!

Congratulations and welcome! Post a photo or two when you get a chance.... Oh and by the way, annoying questions or not it, really doesn't hurt to ask... we ALL were where you're at today, and we all learn from each other.

Welcome! You can ask as many newbie questions and we will tell you politely where to find the answers, if none of the fine gents-ladies will answer them.

SC folks are far more accomodating than RX folks (hope they do not read this...LOL) JK!

Thanks for the welcome. Bought it from Butler Lexus in Macon, GA...Excellent buying experience...Fair deal and a class act all the way...I couldn't be more pleased...well, unless they gave it away...Since it was pre-owned they put it up on the rack so I could inspect underneath at my request...very nice, accommodating people...accidentally left my garage door opener in my trade and they Fed-Exed it to me today. Here are some pics while it was at the dealership. I'm off tomorrow and will spend the day detailing over every inch, reading manuals, and just overall bonding...did I mention I'm a bit OC?
