Default He shoots, he scores !!!

Hi to all !!! Yesterday I drove 500 miles round trip enduring construction and traffic and brought home a 06 Grand Touring automatic with 16k . I wanted to sleep in the garage last night !! Hopefully this is the beginning of a long and wonderful relationship.

as for the auto i bet he lives in a city where it would be more suited for his needs, and maybe he prefers it who knows, either way congrats and welcome to the community.

Well I hope I got a descent price at 20k out the door. There's not much around as far as low mile 06-07 to be had right now. I started out looking for a manual but I did'nt want a" reved up " modle and I wanted leather so I setteled for a auto. It's got a couple of months of bumper to bumper left so I'll try to leave it stock untill that runs out. I'll have pictures soon!

Ouch. I hate to burst your new car fun but why would you settle for something you are going to have for years?

That is about exactly what I paid for my manual 06 Grand Touring with 16k miles back in December. I am not sure it was a great deal or not, but I am happy with it. Congrats, look forward to seeing the pics!

Looking good. Those stock rims are definitely some of the best ones out there.
