This is an amazing car! It comes with all the bells & whistles, very low annual miles (9,388 per year as opposed to 15,000 per year), only two owners, clean carmax report, obsessively maintained, wonderful shape, and all records kept. Current owner has owned car for the past 7 years of the car's 8 year life. Before getting into the options and specs of the car, it's worth noting a few meaningful things about the owner and the environment it was driven in. Firstly, the car has been owned by only two owners (including current owner), and both have been based out of South Carolina, which means that the car hasn't been exposed to hardly any (if any at all) of the detrimental aspects that other cars have to endure in cold-weather environments, namely salt spray on the roads from de-icing and extreme cold temperatures. In fact, the current owner has owned the car the majority of the car's life, and has brought it with him to Winter in Florida every year, so the car has a very environmentally-pampered history. The car has spent every night of the past 7 years in a garage. Secondly, the car is owned by a law firm and is used as an executive car. This means the car was vigorously maintained and all records kept. The car comes equipped with almost all of the available options: adaptive radar cruise control, height-adjusting system, Bose radio with Multi-CD changer, Navigation, wireless smart keyless go system, active suspension system, power convertible hard top, extremely clean, and Michelin Pilot tires. 5.0 liter Aluminum 90-degree V8 Engine, 302 HP, 339 lb.-ft. of torque, Dual exhaustFive-speed electronic automatic transmissionActive suspension systemDual-zone climate control with Micron air filtrationLeather and Wood Interior12 way power front seats, both with 3-position memoryHeated seatsPower tilt/telescoping steering wheelBose premium audio system with 6-disk CD Changer behind seatPower Windows with Express Up & DownAutomatic headlampsAuto-Dimming Rear & Driver Side MirrorsIntegrated Garage Door OpenerCD Navigation SystemSOS button for Tele AidElectronic Stability Program (ESP)Smart Restraint SystemsBabySmart automatic child seat recognition systemDoor-mounted side airbagsABS anti-lock braking system with Electronic Brake Control and Brake AssistMajor Options Car Equipped With:Bi-Xenon HeadlampsDistronic Radar Cruise ControlKeyless GoParktronicDriver Multi-Contour Seatback, Passenger Multi-Contour Seatback The only scratches to the car are very small and can likely be fixed extremely easily and quickly, and all are included in photos: two light light scratches on left rear quarter panel about an inch long each, two light scratches above the gas cap about an inch long each, 5 light scratches on the right rear quarter panel just behind the right door, front right bumper has two small scratch patches as shown in photo, and front middle bumper has a few very faint short scratches.
