    I know, I tried to use that in my negotiations, it didn't work. I was surprised it didn't melt!
    I'm excited, I will hopefully get it next week sometime, its going through the CPO process, and they are fixing some minor issues, nothing at all serious. I'm ready to get it home. I thought about driving it home, but there is so much road construction, I don't want to crack a windshield, or bottom it out with the rough roads. I will drive it when I get it though.

    Congrats on your new one as well!!!! I love the seats as well, they are black alcantara, and they are in very good shape. They have one lithe wear spot on the drivers bolster, but they are fixing it. If they didn't it wouldn't be a big deal at all, but they said they would.

    Very nice in and out. Is carbon fiber in center console a stock feature in 430s?

    Thank you very much. Almost exactly like I would have ordered it from the factory. The only thing that I don't really care for is the red stitching on the dash and in the seats. I love the black inserts, and they are alcantara, which I have never seen before, plus it has the black carpet, which I really think makes the tan leather pop. I really like it, and it has been very well taken care of and very very clean, so I am excited to have it. On the test drive I even got a thumbs up from a hippy in a hippy mobile, so I like it's karma!
