Default Check out this 2004 Black on saddle ultra for sale

Oh lordy what I wouldn't do to have that car. $16,000 is outrageous in my mind but for what they are going for over here in the Northeast actually not too bad .drool

I like it! The ad is a little fishy though. In the first pic the car is sitting in front of a big house taken in the summer, then a few pics later it looks to be at a small used car dealership, then the last pic its just parked in a driveway behind a mercury or ford? Anyway, I wonder where its located as I'm test driving one later today here in Madison, WI. And your right, $16,000 is Full retail and then sum.

yeah laughably high, even for that rare combo. I'd don't blame him for starting high, if he's a serious seller and logical he'll drop it after a month though.

Are you going to look at an ultra in Madison? I seen one on Craigslist a few months back over there. Was real nice too.

Yeah, I thought that was strange too. Not a big fan of the Orange interior.

Are you the one selling this as in your title "for sale by me"? I don't think so from your comments, just trying to figure out the 'by me' note!

Lol yea I noticed my bad title after posting. No it's not mine. I'm actually the one looking for one but staying under $9000 max. Not an ultra per say anymore but either an '05 or '06. I've been looking since September.

No, I just happened to be driving by a BMW dealership here in Madison and there sat a 2004 LS 430. no price, hadn't been detailed, no window sticker. I was told they just took it on on trade Wed. night.

As to the pics, in the last pic the car appears to have red painted calipers, but not in the first pic.

Holy smokes! You are not kidding. $27000? You could pick up a 2012-14 LS 460 with low to mid mileage. I'm sorry but there is no way im buying that car for that price even if that was my budget. You also gotta love the ads sometimes, one close up shot of the clock and a quarter picture of a radio **** lol.

Maybe a little off topic but why does he say the radar sensor is in the center grille? I have an '04 Ultra Luxury and the radar sensor is on the bottom right of the bumper. My manufacture date is 10/03 so maybe they put it there early on and later in '04 they changed the location?

But man, that is one gorgeous interior.

you probably don’t have the pre collision sensor (PCS) option which puts a different unit In the middle of the grill
