2008 MGM for $16,500
#1
We have a large car dealer here in town, handles all kinds of brands.
They are selling the 2008 model (MSRP $25,005) for $16,500, lease backs, with around 7k miles on them. What a bargain.
Checked them out, vehicles come with foglights, and yes, there's even a tachometer in the cluster.

As it's being said, you buy a new vehicle, pull out the car lot, and the first couple grand are gone.

I agree, comfort and safety are worlds apart, and with 17/25mpg more than worth it.
Not to mention reliability, spare parts and interchangeability. There are new cars out there for that kind of money (Kia Optima). But once I cruise down the road and hardly notice their bad condition (our roads are baaaaad here), I know why I drive a large car.
Not me, have enough trouble keeping my old one running and unmolested.
Greetings!

Well, they got another delivery last night. My eyes caught a dark blue one, wow!
What I discovered: All of them have dual exhaust, and I couldn't find that as an option in the current packages, so looks like it's standard.
Also, the ones w/o the front license plate holder seem to have an air cooler hanging there (in the bumper of course, but exposed w/o any protection). Don't know if it is the one for power steering or transmission, but sure looks odd. Doesn't really fit the nice and sleek appearance.
Greetings!

In case you wonder: I'm driving the stripped NASCAR version, I don't even have a cupolder. [img]smileys/smiley8.gif[/img]

I saw a new GS and LS sitting side by side the other day. The GS sticked at just over 27K. Those prices haven't increased much over the last 5 years. While others have gone up 3-4 grand during that time.
Seems like a Sable and Taurus sitting next to the MGM was around 33 grand. I'll take the Marquis any day for that price [img]smileys/smiley14.gif[/img]

You know, you're so right. This dealership I was referring to, they have Taurus and Sable, for the same price.
I understand that people might go with either one of them, because of styling or a few miles more per gallon, for me, there's no doubt, I'd rather have the flagship.
Ahoy!
