I am in South West Houston and Momentum Jaguar is kinda a slight detour on way back home. Let me know.

If you’d like me to click any pics of any specific part.

That listing is weird. Shows Momentum Jag in the image, Momentum Volvo on the sidebar (no big deal they’re in the same place), but then says “View this 2012 LEXUS IS F 4dr Sdn for sale at Land Rover Birmingham in Irondale, AL ” farther down.

Anyway, could be a fun car, but I’m not sure I could justify spending anywhere near $30k on a car with 100,000 miles...

Please hold on before you transfer money. I assume you’d like the PPI done by a professional company / entity.

If it helps, outline your concerns about the vehicle and I’d be glad to handle them.

yeah. Volvo / Jaguar same location..so much so the same physical space was shared by Jaguar vehicles on one side / Land Rover in the middle and Volvo on the other corner.

Yeah I was hoping if the first look over was good, then we could go ahead and get one done later in the week.

What happened to the ST/RS STi/WRX talks we were having? Also, IS-F’s are like the second coming of the e39 M5 imho.

I the wife and I test drove a RC350 F Sport and thought, I like this luxury but with more fun and more doors. The IS-F fi t the bill and in my price range and these last couple months of my commute have scared me away from a manual . Also, ISFs are not deprecating which is both nice and really annoying .

If the generosity of the internet doesn’t work out for you, a friend of mine had pretty OK luck using one of the mail-order mechanic services for a ppi. I think it was Your Mechanic? They missed some stuff because they were unable to put the car on a lift, but overall the caught enough that he knew not to buy the car. (And then bought the car...)

Right before Christmas. I gave it a test drive, then took the wife a week later after they offered me nearly 10k off of a 52k sticker for a 2017.

“I’m looking for something relatively inexpensive like around 30k new.”

I remember someone telling me that, lolololol. I get it though, the grapefruit is president live everyday as though it is your last.
