Problem is... It’s in Boston. Which is a 17 hour drive. That means I either leave Saturday morning from Nashville, get there around 1 pm, and get back late Sunday or leave Friday night and camp in the airport so I can get a early start after signing for the car.

Anyone have any better ideas?

ABSOLUTELY get an Opponaut in the area to get a PPI done at a Lexus dealer, especially since it’s a Northern car. Don’t waste the money on gas or a plane ticket (or worse, the car) and have it turn out to be a piece of crap. Of course, I’m assuming you haven’t already made plans to do so. I hope it’s in great shape and everything goes well!

It was at a Lexus dealer, right? For a nominal fee they’ll probably transfer it to a dealership near you.

You can have it shipped privately and then fly home the same day but that’s probably an extra $800-$1000 onto the cost of the car.

Its beautiful.

I hope it’s as good as it looks!

But I do think you should get an inspection before going as Save the V8s argues

It’s at an Acura dealer but I’m willing to fly back if it doesn’t check out. I just can’t find anyone to do the PPI.

Acura. For a $200 flight and $120 bucks I can have a fun adventure.

I wish lexus was sold here.

I’ll never forget two diplomat cars I saw here, an ES300 and a Toyota Avalon.

Good color. Subtle, and you won’t have to wash it as often!

Best of luck

Might as well spring for a hotel then and take your sweet time getting home. Maybe take a detour down the Blue Ridge Parkway or something.

I’ve found this to be the 2nd most rare color behind blue. It’s crazy how hard a car like this is to find.

I think Opposaurus is in the Boston area, and Dusty Ventures might be around there, too, but I’m not super sure.

I personally recommend stopping at the Luray Caverns if they’re open.

Blue is the best color as is, but take that one above, debadged it and you’ve got the ultimate sleeper.

I like the badges so I’m keeping them but the biggest worry with this car is where the front plate bracket is, I don’t know how that’s going to be if I take it off.

Is that a dark blue? It’s gorgeous.

Is there a way you can get there early, and have a shop do a PPI Saturday, then you sign paperwork after that? I know you tried finding someone local and struck out, maybe a shop reco from an Oppo and you can take it yourself?

Good luck - hope this works out! !

It’s Smoky Granite Micah but as E90M3 and I have said, it has a lot of blue in it.

The blue probably shows up in certain light, I’m guessing.

Good luck!

Yeah. It takes a really good color and paint to do that I think.

The 2010-2011 wheels are my favorite. Even though this is a red car(the back doesn’t look as good with the red cars)

I would totally go check it out for you if I was home in MA instead of at school in VT. Give Dusty a try, he might be willing to make the trip from Springfield to Boston.

I’m in Mass, but I’m about 90 minutes from Boston and with work this week and Lemons Rally next week I wouldn’t be able to make it out there until almost mid-month.

Make a weekend out of it? I bought my Miata in Birmingham Alabama on a Friday. Drove to my sister’s in Atlanta and partied with her. Woke up Saturday and went into the mountains around tail of the dragon, then drove 10 hours back home.

Super happy I did it that way, great first trip with the car.

That sucks. If it helps, I just lied, lol. Didn’t want to waste a vacation day, and didn’t know if my boss would give me the day off. So I said the crossfire broke and I couldn’t make it. Came to work on Monday with a new car!

I’ll be in Boston next week, but won’t have time to check it out. You can of course ask the dealer if they can drop it somewhere for you.
