For Sale: 06 4.8is Lemans Blue

[dragoncoach]

Wow! You and your wife must have been REALLY bored in order to go out to a dealership and trade X's! When my wife gets bored, we go shopping as well....but usually not for cars. Congrats on your "new" X. The main thing is you and the wife are happy with the car and the deal.

Uh, yes we do have a smog test in CT, every 2 years for cars that are 2007 and below....what do you think that sticker is for on the windshield? They read the OBD computer and verify that all systems are operational.

No, cars don't go on the dyno like they used to, all 96+ cars are now simply read with a computer...

Enjoy your new 4.8is...

Thank you everyone. Yes, I am aware of the smog test. Once again, all of those prices were already factored into the price.

Oh don't get me wrong, she does a fair amount of mall shopping and online shopping. We're very happy with the x thus far.

I make up stuff daily, too.

BGM, you don't have to be rude and play hate. I am simply stating the the facts. I'll be detailing the x this week and post some pictures after I have the Navi installed.

He was just joking around.

Congrats and enjoy!

TO each their own. Congrats. Not sure I would go through the exercise of trading in one vehicle for essentially the EXACT SAME vehicle with essentially the SAME mileage? Actually, I'm POSITIVE I would not go through that exercise.

If I ever get that bored, I usually pop in a Family Guy DVD. Or go do some bench presses. I don't say to myself "I'm going to go trade my Titanium Silver 2006 4.4i with 90,000 miles....for an Imola Red 2006 4.4i with 83,000 miles."

While I agree that it's pretty crazy in general, I will admit that if I found an identical car in Carbon Black I'd do it myself.
