What color?
How long before these can be found for 32K?
Currently 06 models with < 10K Miles are listed around 33 - 35K which means you could purchase for $32K.
I think once the 2008's roll out in the late summer that we'll see a flood of low mileage 07's on the market and the diligent shopper will find what they are looking for.
Is my budget realistic?
Any input is appreciated.
Also, I would love to buy a slightly used certified SRX, rather than a new one. I see that some Detroit dealers have some factory cars, does anyone know how those cars get distributed around? Are any coming to the DC area?
I really love this car, I just think it is too expensive compared to the MDX Sport. Has anyone else gone through the MDX vs. SRX analysis, I would welcome your input on how you reached your decision.
Thanks.
Any thoughts/suggestions before I start a friendly discussion at my dealership?
Also, what about power tilt/telescoping wheel?
Not sure about Voice Activated Nav, but if the Rear A/C Option is ordered the SRX does have an A/C Evaporator and Cooling Ducts in the rear sides of the Headliner which should work quite nicely for back seat cooling.
Also, it does not have a Smart key.
They have a New Style key FOB (Very fancy), but its not a Smart Key system.
You still need to insert the key in the ignition lock to start vehicle. Vehicle does not have a "Start" Button on the dashboard.
Do you, or does anyone, know if bluetooth will be an option on the '08s?
The new key FOB might work as a Smart Key. There is no start button but the ring around the ignition key might be set up to be a twist "Start" button.
This is apparently how the 2008 CTS will be setup.
Not sure if the FOB will also automatically unlock the doors. Will have to look into further.
Have you heard anything about bluetooth. That is very important to me, since my wife will be driving the car often, and we have found it to be a very useful and safe feature to have on our RX330.
:sick:
Never been on a forum before but this is my last resort. I bought my SRX in July 2007. Since, Nov 2007 the car started intermittently. Jim Coleman Cadillac in Bethesda have replaced the mass air flow system and the alternator. They have checked the started and the fuel pump and they said that it is ok. They finally told us that the problem is the engine harness. They stated that the car had some damaged wires from a previous accident which we had no clue about because it wasn't on the Carfax report. On January 2, 2007, we finally got the car out of the shop (after paying $2500) and low and behold the next day, the car wouldn't start again. This morning, it started up again and so it's back at the dealer today. Does anyone have any thoughts as to what else I should have the dealer check into? BTW, the car was bought from a dealer called Car Spectrum and they do not certify their cars. But that's another story.
I find them pretty loud, and think i'm going to disable them.
After looking on Ebay at some 2004's that are AWD, there does not seem to be a 4 on any of them :surprise:
However, on mine there is a caution in front of the radiator that says this is an AWD so any testing done needs to use proper equipment...
If you have snow, then you could try to get it stuck and see if all 4 wheels spin
The easiest thing is to look under the hood at the front for the caution (a yellow tag) that says this is an AWD vehicle. If that tag is there then it is AWD. One can also check for the drive shafts on the front wheels, but this is somewhat more difficult to do (but not hard). The fun way would be to take it into a snow covered parking lot and try to spin all four wheels....
