Default Little Rock

I needed to replace my wifes Wrangler due to an upcoming family addition. I hadn't really narrowed things down, but I threw a "hail mary bid" on an 09 G8 on ebay and won it. Flew to Little Rock and drove it home today.

09 G8 GT sport package, no sunroof no red leather. 27400 miles. Bought it from the original owner. Older gentleman, took awesome care of it.

Quick and dirty (literally) pics

A buddy is looking for the exact same car. What did you end up giving for it?

Not too big of a deal on G8's, but double check the radius rod and strut top bushings for wear.

Great cars, I still miss mine sometimes. Take a lot of pics of the wheels while they still look good. hehe

Nice car. Looks to be in great shape and has low mileage. Nice find.

That's a pretty solid price for that car. Great find. They are still hovering around 25K in my region.

Not a bad deal at all. Like Z Fury, they're in the 23-25k range around here -- which is where they've been the past two years.

Enjoy it!!!
