Ok, we've all seen the ads where some young kid is selling a Honda or something similar. The interior is all 1/2 taken apart because he installed a sound system and under dash lights but never got it back together. The car will have crusty aftermarket wheels with no center caps, holes in the door panels, sagging headliner.....you know the routine.
I really thought that had NEVER happened to a car of this caliber.

Oh how far it has fallen.....

it says the car was used for "commercial use" so I imagine that 12,000 miles it has on the odo are added onto about a million hours of idling in front of churches, airports, bars, theatres, resturants, and the like

Reported with 12.310 miles on 10/15/08... now advertised at 12,327. Been sitting for a while.

Then:

12/22/2010 FL Motor Vehicle Dept. TITLE (Title #:0102840568) SCRAPPED/DESTROYED EXCLUDED/EXEMP

But no theft or accident records. Flooded? Big mechanical issues?

Weird.

I just assumed that it was a Florida car. In south Florida, decade-old ultra luxury cars are practically dirt-lot material. Every Miami Beach club seemed to have a handful of these out front.

i don't think you'd have a problem getting it thru the silly tech process they have... just do it up in some kind of a rapper/NBA player bling bling theme and you're in..

Pompano Beach, FL, to be exact.

I'll have you know those center caps use stupid plastic clips that snap off when they get old
