anyway, so i found my grandma a car she really liked, after test driving about 10. I got a great deal from my buddy at infinity of hawaii on a 02 Lexus IS300. 20,000 miles, excellent condition, came with the remaining factory warrenty, 4 yr 50,000 miles bumper to bumper, 6 year 70,000 mile power train. and the great thing about it was, it was purchased LATE 02 so there is still quite a bit of warrenty. The car had everything, dual power seats, brand new tires, moon roof, leather, the works. got it for 24,900. including tax, lic, documantation, etc.
pics to come..

... she loves it by the way.. i had to pry her fingers off of the steering wheel as it was getting dark, as mom doesn't want her to drive at night! hahaha
