Well, after much debate and the fact that Gordy wouldn't sell me his vette,:lol: I pulled the trigger on a ride for me here in Florida. 3 times I walked away from this car and it still ended up in my driveway
I was all set to buy a 2006 vette with 12,000 miles, 6 speed, convertible, power top, triple black, actually, it had every option available on an 06 plus some performance parts. I was gonna drop 33k on it. I figured what the hell, I deserve it. Then a lady that is in our office here in JAX had this car and we bickered back and forth for 4 months and she couldn't make up her mind whether or not to sell it (she really likes the car) but the last straw was she got a job with the FDIC back in California (where she is from)and didn't want to take the car back. She called me as I was setting up a meeting to go see the 06 vette. Let's just say she made it worth the wait!! This car is a driver and I wouldn't be afraid to take it anywhere. It would be an appearance problem if I showed up at a bank closing in a vette, besides the fact I would be trackable (where I was staying, etc.) and there's no telling what a disgruntled bank employee, president or officer could/would do to it. Just not worth the risk. I gotta say this little ride is is put together very well and the hardtop convertible is pretty nifty. And before any of you smart a$$es ask, YES I FIT IN IT!!:lol:
Here she is, a 2002 (yes, 2002) LEXUS SC430, V8 (governed at 150mph), saddle leather, all the bells and whistles (NAV, CD, Mark Levinson sound system with 7 speakers an amp and sub) brand new rubber, and just plain a fun car to drive.
Sorry Mac, there's a vette in my future but for now this is the new TOXIC Mobile...until the wife sees it I'm sure:lol::lol:

sorry about the pic size...I thought they were smaller.
