i had a very specific car in mind.
because i wanted to do some very specific things to it.
i was looking for an 02-03 very base model in onix black with the non yelow/orange shaded solid leather seats. and under 90k mi. but i gave up after about 9 months. and settled for this base model with navi and mark levinson for $12,000
heated front and rear seats. no parking sensors, bc i wanted the clean look

Sounds fair for a car with under 100K. Do you have the cooled seats and were you able to check out the Nav?

all nav/radio features work as far as i noticed. i didnt go into extreme detail about nav features i just know it was following me around when i was driving.
and when i clicked around inside climate/radio/nav everything worked fine
im pretty sure they are not cooled seats, keep in mind i was looking for a base model
the only thing thats wrong with it is what it sounds to me like the amp is going out.
asking price was 14k but i talked him into 12.5 and after *****ing about the amp he gave me more $$$ off the price

i was always into vip, but liked drifting more. now that tha phase is over with due to a poooppie motorcycle accident, its luxury from here on..
i started looking into the ls430 and doing research in the middle of 09.
started looking for the actual car in october of 09
dozens of disappointments later i gave up on a 100% stripped down, base model, black LS, and got this one.

You will be sorry you got black. What a PITA, especially in FL. You will see every single dent, ding, swirl, chip, spider web in the ultra soft paint. The sprinklers and rain storms will etch water contaminates into the paint work and the entire car will remain 15-20 degrees hotter then a light colored car in the hot sun. I'd back out of this deal now and get a lighter colored car.

Sorry to get off the topic, but what is the actual name for the off white that looks like a very very light grey? I've seen it on the 2002 LS430. I assume the whitest white is Crystal White.
