Default Bill Cosby's LS430 for sale

My local dealer has it on hand and CPO'd it in case anyone is interested. Not my bag, but I did check it out and it's in fantastic condition with 18K on the ticker...

Yes it really was his. Don't know if that really means anything to anyone (it doesn't to me) but worst case it's a 2006 LS430 with only 18K miles on it in great condition.

One would expect The Cos' to have a UL rather than a ML.

Pretty cool when you see such big names drive LS430s. Those ppl can drive anything in the world, a real testament to how good the 430 is!

I wonder if Alan Mulally of Ford ever sold his "Finest car in the world."

Not 100% sure but he very well could as he's one of Temple Universities most famous alumni. I read one year he donated $50 millon to the school.

If the back story is accurate - its likely to have been gently driven given the age of the purported owner. Looks like it was also relatively well maintained. 06 with only 18k - if it was garaged might be a great used car - always have to inspect for rust on any car from up in the rust belt.

Don't forget coca cola... ironically, he was replaced by two white polar bears ...

It's a clean LS. I guess if I were rich and had money to blow, I'd buy it.

Reminds me of the Seinfeld episode where George buys John Voight 's car - only it wasn't THE John Voight, just some schlub with the same name. DOH!
