    I've seen a few dealers post about available cars and some people get a bit miffed over multiple posts like that. What if instead we use this post or sticky one with an appropriate title were we the "buyers" post what we want then the dealers could PM us if they have a car available? That way everything is confined to one post and noone has to deal with multiple threads.

    If that's okay I'll start by making my request. If you don't like the idea feel free to delete this thread.

    Edited to Jabber's format. Added home zip code so we can tell what the mile limit applies to.

    Zip Code: 41501
    Model: II, III
    Color 1: Gray
    Color 2: Red
    Int Color 1: Dark Gray
    Int Color 2: Light Gray
    Package: None
    Mile limit: (How far you are willing to travel) 200-250
    Deposit placed: (Editted post after a vehicle is ordered or found)

    I 100% agree with you! Admins?? Any way we can make a sticky for "Buyer Requests"?

    If I may make a suggestion. Maybe should follow a certain order:

    Model: (II, III, IV, V)
    Color 1:
    Color 2:
    Int Color 1:
    Int Color 2:
    Package: (None, NV, SR, ATP)
    Mile limit: (How far you are willing to travel)
    Deposit placed: (Editted post after a vehicle is ordered or found)

    I know this will help me find a vehicle faster with the car clearly displayed.

    Ok, I'll bite. I'm looking for a IV_SR or V_Nav in RI. Silver or Med Gray.
    Anywhere in RI/Conn (not mass) is fine.

    Me too! I test drove a Black Pkg 3 and liked it but I really loved the Blizzard Pearl V. Wasn't able to drive the Pearl (already sold . . . sob . . . sob) but I was allowed to sit in it. It had the bisque interior and looked rich although I favor the Misty Grey.

    I'm interested in the following if by chance there is a dealer that may be willing to part with . . .

    Model: V
    Color: Blizzard Pearl
    Int Color: Misty Grey
    Package: None or NV
    Mile Limit: ~500 Miles or Florida (Dad lives there so it'd be a hit 2 birds with one stone kinda road trip)
