Buying used s197 - Advise ??

[GoVols]

go vols? I think he might be from TN

Virginia. Mom's side of the family is from E. TN. I grew up an Army brat. My older brother got both his degrees from UT. In high school I'd go down for a few days during the fall to "see what college was like" and catch a game. Throw in a solid George or Jack pregame and if Neyland doesn't turn you into a fan, you have no pulse. Last year was brutal but at least it got things going in a better direction. I don't think Kiffin will take too long to get them back to being competitive. Hell, he probably won't even have to get Escalades for recruits... Had to get a dig in there somewhere

Now that I'm done typing stuff that the vast majority of posters probably couldn't care less about, thanks for the advice. Does anyone know if the warranty is transferable? Also, does the transferability depend on if I buy from a private seller or not?

factory bumper to bumper is just that, extended warrinty can be transfered for a fee. Things to consider is what options you want, and color. Then start looking from there, check forums, autotrader, cars.com, ebay, and craigslist. Drive to the dealers and see what they have, get on the phone and call dealers to far to drive to for a few mins.

Why i mention the options is because certain colors are for certain years, as far as the leather you have basically 2 colors, tan or black. But they do have grey cloth. I had cloth in my first car and liked it for the cold/hot seat parts but it stains easier, etc. but leather cleans up easier, but be careful with armorall will wear it out fast and make you slide around in the seat alot.

Good luck in your future purchace and as a refrence 2 friends both bought '06s recently one from a dealer for 13,6 and 35k miles, other 14,5 and 40k miles but lots of mods and private party sale.

I have gray leather. so no, there are more than tan and black, charcoal is a color too!

Also, sonic blue was an 05 ONLY year. its Vista now. i dont think they make the gold(green) color anymore.

Also get the ipod connection, i wish i had it in my car, i have an iphone so it would have been perfect.
