Original sticker price over $162k
X50 + PCCB + atlas gray, that's a very nice looking car and price doesn't seem crazy.

Agreed. If it's as good as it looks, it's a the best priced car they have in their inventory.

According to Vinalytics, the original sticker price was $169k:

It's got the Performance Plus Package, which includes PCCB's and X50. Overall, a VERY nicely equipped car that seems to be well priced, if the maintenance and vehicle history checks out

That dealer was called out on pelican over some shenanigans, and they responded by having a lawyer threaten the website if they didn't delete the post. I wouldn't buy a valve stem caps from them.

the other reviews are very good. The price is good. I just got mine about a month ago but it was not x50. I would have kicked in the extra 8k for this one if it checked out

Another funny anecdote about Luxsport. Back when Ferrari 456s were $65k cars, a guy in Houston was selling his. Very nice car, green colored, featured on Jalopnik I think. The seller got a phone call from a "collector" on Long Island, who told him a story about how he and his father were building a collection, and it was their father and son thing to do, and warm fuzzy stuff like that, and they bought the car. As soon as the car got off the trailer it was for sale at Luxsport for $90k.

Thanks for that, I couldn't be bothered to track down the thread. Wow I can't believe it's been almost six years. Time flies.

It's also not listed correctly - it's not a Savannah interior, that's a Natural Brown interior.
