Default Finally Pulled the Trigger

Well after a few months trolling the site learning as much as I could about these cars, I finally worked a great deal and brought home a certified 2011 SGM from Park Place Lexus in Grapevine TX. This is my second certified Lexus and it is the first time I ever bought a car via email sight unseen. My son and I flew into DFW Saturday morning, were met by my salesman and were quickly out the door with an awesome car. Truly a great experience and a fantastic car. Thanks to all for the info!
