Here is a question for you guys...I am dead set on purchasing an S. I have the opportunity to pick up a 2006 Laguna Blue w/800 miles! for around $25,500. I test drove it last night and it was amazing! Does it sound like I am getting a good deal? It was one of the dealer's employees son's and he traded it in for a G-series Infintity (it is at an Infinity dealer). They said they will provide me with a carfax report as well.

^ Yes, that sounds like a good deal. Go for it... I paid more than that last July and I got a good deal.

here is the catch though...its not my top choice in color...i'd rather have white, black, or possibly yellow over the blue....but the price seems almost worth looking past the color...what are your thoughts?

I suggest you wait for your preferred color. No sense in owning a car you don't like the looks of, IMO. If you're anything like me, you'll always have that nagging regret that you should have waited for what you really want. It's not like it's impossible to find a white, black or yellow one.

but to find a white or black with 800 miles at $25,500?? I can pony up the 2 extra grand, but that 2,000 can be used towards performance mods or a hard top...its a toss up...hard decision and just looking for opinions

That is a great price, but I agree with Elistan.

Now that I see the color issue, I agree with the others above. If it matters to you that much, you may want to reconsider. If I were doing it, I'd pay for one of my top two colors - this one didn't make your list. I bought the Rio (on the spur of the moment) after owning a Silverstone Red/Black for five years. I really loved my Silverstone and was not really looking for Rio. But now I think it's great. Get many more compliments on this one. Many peeps love the Laguna, but if you aren't one of them, it won't matter. Good luck, whatever you decide!
