I know a lot of guys dont like the Impala but if its a clean title never wrecked car with low miles they hold there value very well and might actually be worth more in value than most of those other cars he posted..I personally would not trade the 7 & for it but the Impala SS is a one of a kind and that one looks very clean minus the wheels..just my .2 cents

hey bro i will meet the guy tommorow with that ls430... lex is real clean as far as i can tell from pix and its dealer maintained..fully loaded has coilovers,rolled fenders,stagg. 20's,and combo is good black/black and only 86k miles+ comes with stock chrome rims/tires just like mine..

ive seen some really bad xxx ls430 dropped all blacked out...if i will get it tommorow,thats my plan...big brakes...guad exhaust..led in/out..smoked out tailights..make it similar like my 7 and maybe even body kit

just found one with 39k miles,pristine for 14,900...i will not trade my 7 for it,but if i had cash to spare i would get me one....pretty solid cars with lt1 engines....and you see them in every movie...ever seen ''crank"" with jason statham??? there was a good chase seen with 2 of them..

here's couple more pix he sent..

couple more pix of ls430

guy is offering me 03 rover hse with extra 07 lights,tailights,grill...has navi..roof rack..running boards...22 giovanas with new rubber etc...
but has 167k miles which guy said car always delaer maintained with lots of records,receipts...
i heard not sure if true that 03 rovers not so good in quality..especially air suspension leaks,engine,tranny and diff problems...
any one owned 03 rover and whats your experience?thx
couple pix

Looks nice but too many miles for that type of car IMHO. I heard there worst than the 7, but I have never owned one so I can be wrong. You seem to be pretty handy from what I have read an seen you post so fixing cars is not really a problem for you. Its about what you like better an how often you wanna spend time underneath the car making repairs rather than in the driver seat styling down the freeway. Best wishes though bro.

looks clean but you are right too many miles ehhh...... don't they have the bmw engine in them or still jag?
i read that air suspension is the biggest problem but can be converted to regular shocks...
my fiance she was going to buy a 07 rover back in 07 but she got much much better deal on 07 tahoe fully loaded and cost her about 20k less than rover back in 07

my problem is that i can't keep a car for too long...ill get bored and have to get something new..some new project...customize it a little and sell it or trade it...

fiance doesn't like the idea of selling/trading the 7 series at all...she loves how the 7 looks now and drives...plus we got too much money invested/not including labor on my part...lol

im not trying to sell it/trade it because it has some problems...everything is fixed now and runs like a swiss watch....who knows brother maybe ill just keep the 7 and drive it until it falls apart//

btw is your 300c a hemi or v6?thx and any pics?

i would think about mb if it was s500 or s55amg and of course i would put money on top for the s55amg...s430 is the baby of the s class

So have you decided on what you're going to trade for? or at all?

well im still getting offers..like the guy with that rover hse i kind of like it but he lives all the way in gainsville fl..close to 300 miles from naples..plus he mentioned that air suspension had leaks so he went with conversion and put regular coils on there...so that kind of put me off..since i think air suspension is what rover is all about

and the guy with ls430 he really likes my bmw and i think we will meet since the lexus ls430 looks like the best deal so far but then i drove my 7 last night after waxing it and i love how it handles/sits right now..plus i always get compliments on my 7 even though its 2002,somehow people think its much much newer
its a tough decision bro but when i trade ill post pics right away if i will trade
fiance she loves the 7 and always tells me just lets keep it

Well good luck on the trade if you decide to do it. You know your car what you've done and what to expect if you decide to keep it. Doing trade, it's the uncertainties, the unknown that would deter me from doing it.
I relate to your feelings about the car, the 7 has that "charm" just can't get past. Again good luck and can't wait to see some pics.

If you think the S430 is a baby then you should see the short-wheelbase S350 only available for 2006. Slow, shorter, and generally waste of money. The S430 is barely slower than the S500, but comes with less standard features.

I would avoid the 2000-2002 S-Classes because they were pretty much the low-point of Mercedes quality (blame Chrysler) and, as a result, had an endless amount of problems. See if you can find a 2005/6 S-Class if you want a Mercedes; they tend to have most of the glitches fixed. Make sure you have a good, exclusionary warranty ("We cover everything except..."), especially with the V12's or AMG's just in case.

My family has owned a 2000 S430 (totalled at 72K mi) and currently owns a 2006 S500 (94K mi).

thanks for the info and you right about w220 benzes as they had problems with abc,suspension etc but if fixed nice cars..
used to have w140 s320 and s500 and those benzes were built like tanks very heavy but quality was excellent except i had to replace evaporator in s320 and that was no joke....taking the whole dash out since they built the whole car around it..lol
how is the s600 treating you?? any major problems in those 94k miles of ownership? thx

I would say,

Porsche
5 series
EVO
Mustang
