The Olds and Buick are pleasant and reliable cars, but I simply despise FWD.

"Despise?" Strong words, but I kinda agree. FWD is certainly less desirable in a car with sporting pretentions. I haven't owned a front-driver for a couple of decades now.

So you despise your MS3?

After reading the past few posts he wrote about it he certainly seems too.

Yes; I thought that the MS3 would be an entertaining change from my usual Bavarian RWD iron. Wrong. Annoying and boring are the best adjectives I can use to describe the MS3 driving experience...

2002 GS430 70k Silver/Black It has some factory L-Tuned suspension and exhaust pieces. Fairly clean except for a minor accident where the rear bumper was replaced. He is asking $15,500. It does have the Mark Levinson, the NAV, and heated seats.

Sounds nice. The 430 should have more pep than the 300 or 400. Much cheaper than a new Hyundai Genesis!

I don't know what the price should be, but the low-ish miles, the Mark Levinson, the NAV, etc. would sure have me interested. I've read the Mark Levinson stereo is amazing; & I loved the Nakamichi systems on older lexus cars.

Driving a murano sl awd -- lease will be up in less than 2 years. Already researching what I will lease next. [pathetic, I know] List is now : 2011 sienna and 2011 quest --- Subaru outback and tribeca --- 2011 explorer.Will add a few more I'm sure.
 Awd is nice but I have a jeep liberty for really bad weather. First thing to compare from my standpoint is the leather seating. Nothing makes the final 2-3 if gluteus ain't happy. That includes thigh support. Then test drives/interior space and best lease deal. May put the odyssey in there too. Both my wife and I are retired. Like lots of room for golf clubs and ALL the luggage we take on trips. Two grandkids as well. Gotta be sitting up higher than a sedan for looking ahead. Mpg not huge factor -- don't drive that much and most of these can get 20-25 highway. My murano can give 28-29 at 60mph.
Decided I'm going the lease route for the next decade or so. Like a new ride every 3 years so leasing makes better sense than buying. When I get too old to care -- just buyout the last lease and keep it until I can't drive anymore.
