Hi guys, looks like the red one is gone at Prestige. I looked at the yellow from the Lexus dealer, and it is a nice car, but yellow is not my preferred color. My first choice is Berlina Black on Black, then Red on black.

It is early yet so I am sure other cars will come up, and I'll keep looking. The plan is to buy the car when I'm down there at the end of March and drive it back. It is a great drive, and I'm sure the S will enhance it.

Thanks to everyone who took the time to look into this for me. Much appreciated, and hopefully I can return the favor.

If you are looking for the end of march then don't look now at a dealers lot. They don't like to keep them over 30 days and at 60 days they will be at auction.

Shop just to compare pricing but more than likely a dealer won't have a car in March if it is on the lot now.

Thanks for the advice guys. I have been looking at Autotrader, and doing price comparisons, etc. The last time I did this a snagged a great SLK just at the 60 day mark and got a great deal.

It is early but if the right deal came along, then I would pull the trigger now and just fly down and store the car until the end of March. The significant other says to just hold on, but it is really hard getting through the winter just wishing to get behind the wheel, top down, tunes cranked, and nothing but highway ahead.

I saw an NFR in Covington, LA at a Honda dealer, looked like an 08. It was an AP2 with the V3 wheels. Covingotn is a small place so Ide imagine the only Honda dealer there. It was 11PM so I could not look at it close.
