Default Wife choses 430 over 460!

My wife has decided she is more comfortable in her 430 than her new 460 so I am selling it. If any of you know some one who would like an almost new LS460, delivered 10/26, and want to avoid the wait, send them my way. It is silver with charcoal interior and has a sticker of $72901 which means it is equiped with all currently available options. I am looking to get sticker on the car figuring someone will be able to avoid the long dealer based waits.

That is nuts. The new LS460 is so sick, the dealer showed me the auto parking when I went in for an oil change. Good luck with the sale.

perhaps the better title should be "husband chooses 460 over wife" lol jkjk

seriously!?!? geez, i would be pissed. why didnt she say something before you bought the car? anyways, you would probably sell it faster if you sold for a little under the sticker, just a tad, cause the value of the car shot down once you drove it off the lot. good luck tho!

GL getting sticker price for that thing. Considering it's "used" and has a previous owner.

PS - yes your 'wife' is nuts.

I'd make her keep the 460 and get used to it. She had to get used to the 430 when it was new, right? Why take a bath on selling the new car, especially a new LS? I'd sell the older one. My two cents.

I figure I will go under sticker if someone is interested. It will be the first 460 sold under sticker.

Nice. Convertibles are definitely the way to go. Now I can understand. But the 460 is sweet ride. If I had 70K + laying around, I'd pick it up. =)
