Default We found the CAR!!!!!!
We got the car that we went and seen today in New Port Richey, We are very happy!!

I love it... 1999, covertible, Nassau Blue, it is so beautiful and in excellent condition, Clean. The person who sold it to us took really good care of it. We fell in love with it right away, I just wanted to let every one know and thank you all for the leads..
