Hi All,

So glad I found this forum, what a treasure trove of amazing information. As the title implies, I have $20-$25k to spend on a 100-series or 80-series. I'm combing the classifieds daily, but thought it couldn't hurt to post a WTB here. Since "best" means different things to different people, these would be my preferences:

• Minimal to no rust
• ~150k miles or less
• Close to stock (not looking for something already built)
• Good cosmetic condition (not repainted or reupholstered)
• Well documented maintenance history
• Fewer previous owners the better, a former mall crawler would be ideal
• Minimal deferred maintenance
• I'd consider an LC but I've always preferred the way the LX looks
• Something on east coast would be ideal (I'm in NYC but will travel)
• Don't care whether it has triple lockers (for 80-series)

I'm an adult, have cash in hand, will not waste anyone's time. Not in a huge rush, happy to wait for the perfect one to come along. I already have a GX470 which I love, but an LX was always the dream. If you have one or know of one please let me know.

Appreciate the help.

Nate
