I bought this car just 2 years ago as a first car for my daughter. it didn't long to realize that it was way too nice for a kid and I kept it for myself. It has quickly become my most favorite car ever ! People who know me say I always make the cars I own , better than when I bought them. This is no exception. The car is in very nice condition , shiny black paint , the black leather interior has no rips, tears or cracks. Every single option and feature works as it should, power windows, locks , climate control, cold a/c, 6 disc factory cd changer in the trunk, everything! The engine runs fantastic, smooth powerful, fun to drive ! Trans shifts as it was designed, the auto and manual modes work great. I have done tons of work to this car to make it as close to perfect as possible, below I will list all the good as well as a few things that I havent gotten to yet.
The Good and the New:
This car gets 30 MPG on the highway!!!!!!! The Harmon Kardon sound system has amplified subs and sounds awesome!!
new alternator,new radiator,new valve cover gasket,new tires(about 1000 miles on them now),new front brakes and rotors, new sway bar mounts welded in, new front control arms,new ball joints, new control arm bushings, new driveshaft flex disc (guibo joint), new transmission mounts, new center support hanger bearing, new brake light switch, Factory keyless entry (2 key fobs) with alarm. Heated power adjustable seats, factory driving lamps
fresh synthetic oil and Bosch Platinum +4 plugs, LED headlight accents ( see photos)
The Bad ( if you can call it that):
The previous owner must have been a tailgater, because the nose of the car has quite a bit of small chips ( road rash) , fortunately it doesn't show from about 5 feet away, see photos, the drivers side has a scratch about the size of a quarter probably from someone opening a car door carelessly, there is a 3" long spot on the lower edge of the door that shows some rust , just a bit where the paint wore off, touch up paint would cover it but I never worried about it . The window washer squirters seem to have low pressure, I think the tubing may be pinched under the hood. That's really it for bad stuff, mostly cosmetic stuff
This car runs,drives and looks great the pictures tell the story, its been garage kept its whole life and very well cared for, I would love to keep it but I need an SUV to tow my trailer and I don't have room for any more cars.

2014 Mercedes Benz S Class
Lexus back in luxury sales race after three-year absence
Sun, 08 Jun 2014Think the only challengers for the title of best-selling luxury brand hail from der Vaterland? Wrong. Lexus outsold the likes of Mercedes-Benz for the second time in 2014 last month. In fact, the Japanese luxury marque's total sales this year are a mere 12,000 units behind BMW.
Lexus was able to move 26,921 vehicles last month, a year-over-year increase of 21.1 percent, respectively. Mercedes, meanwhile, was just barely beaten, moving 26,617 units in April. The difference, though, is that Lexus has made far bigger year-over-year gains than Mercedes, which recorded a YOY increase of just 4.13 percent.
This is particularly troubling for the Germans, as it marks a return to form for Lexus that we haven't seen since before the March 2011 earthquake and tsunami that decimated Japan. Prior to that natural disaster, Lexus enjoyed nearly a dozen years at the top of the luxury heap.
Husqvarna sold to KTM CEO Stefan Pierer
Fri, 01 Feb 2013A couple of days ago the UK's Motorcycle News reported that BMW was in the final stages of selling Husqvarna to KTM, with a deal potentially confirmed as soon as this week. Following that came reports that Husqvarna Motorcycles wasn't sold to KTM but to a Pierer Industries, the company owned by KTM CEO Stefan Pierer. Turns out the advance report was true, as was the follow-up: BMW has just announced a "strategic realignment" of its Motorrad division, explaining that it sold Husqvarna to Pierer Industries in order to focus on the urban and e-mobility segments. Husqvarna's off-road machines, obviously, don't fit into those categories.
BMW bought the Italian-based bike maker with centuries-old Swedish roots in 2007 - the rest of the Husqvarna company remains based in Sweden - and has invested huge sums to integrate the smaller company into the larger parent. Six years later, just when dividends should begin to truly pay off, the brand is sold.
Before BMW made its announcement, one of the theories that forum members put forward for Pierer's interest in purchasing Husqvarna was that he wants his own business to run his own way. The parent company of KTM, Cross Industries, is 47.27-percent owned by India's Bajaj Automotive, with Pierer the majority shareholder, and is on a quest for global growth, taking the fight to BMW in Europe and launching new bikes and technology into the Indian market. Compared to BMW's and KTM's 2012 sales of around 100,000 bikes each in 2012, Husqvarna sold 10,751 bikes, which was a 15.7-percent increase over the previous year. Pierer would have a lot more freedom in the running of a company of that size.
