Default Need someone in LA to scope a vehicle

Hey CL,

Recently my GS430 was totalled in an accident that wasn't my fault. I really loved that car and I am trying to get a new one. I am looking for an 03-04 GS430 in parchment crystal and one of the only ones I can find is in LA. I am located in Houston and need someone to go look at it and possibly take some pictures for me. Obviously I would be willing to compensate you for your trouble. If you could help me out I would greatly appreciate it.

Yeah sorry,

The name of the shop is Blue Rhino Motors. They are located 9979 San Fernando Rd, Los Angeles, CA 91331.

I mostly want someone to scope out the shop, give me pictures of the flaws that the dealer wont show, that kind of stuff. Also, I may need someone to take it to a local lexus shop for a pre-purchase inspection.

I know that this is a lot to ask, which is why I would be happy to reimburse you for any incovenience. I just miss my 430 a great deal and really want another one like it. Here is a pic of my old one before the wreck.

Hey Guys,

Unfortunately, the dealer is pretty firm on 13k and shipping is an additional 700. As much as I love the gs430 I am not prepared to spend 14k+ on a 10 year old vehicle. I am going to keep looking locally. Thanks a bunch for the help though.
