Hi People!

I'm new on this forum! I live in holland (the netherlands) and i'm 28 years old! Here is my car buying story:

In november 2010 i started searching for a new company car (I will be leasing). I have test driven the Audi A3, Bmw 1 and Citroen DS3. Actually i liked the citroen DS3 the most because it's very beautifull, very fast (I've driven the 1.6THP version), nice handling and it not too expensive. So in november I planned to order the Citroen but then i saw the advertisement for the CT200h. I immediately liked it and started to gather information about it. The specs convinced me and i already know the CVT + engine because i'm driving a Prius now! So in januari 2011 the lease-company ordered the car and the lexus dealer is expecting it in april. Don't know of it will be april for sure because of the tsunami. But I have to say, it's getting harder and harder to wait

My lexus will be:
-White pearl
-LED lights
-17" alloys
-black interior
-Bleutooth parrot system (for my telephone)
-privacyglass

I've not ordered the navigation system because i use tomtom already, wich i think is the best.

I'm planning to buy black 18" alloys. I would also like to lower it, but lowering is a little bit difficult because i am leasing. But i assume that that the original springs can be placed back when I have to return the car to the lease company (after 4 years). Right?

See you! Grtz!

Welcome - enjoy!

Welcome, the worst is the wait; the car is fantastic!

Yes, the car will have to be returned to the original condition when the lease is up, unless you decide to buy the car at the end of your lease.

Hi 909trauma, I am from Curacao and live in the USA now for 31 years. Yesterday, I drove mine off the lot. It is a Day Break Yellow Premium with leather and premium sound. I just did not want to wait for the red matador with leather, Nav, premium sound and LED lights. It is an awsome ride and the sports feature is slick. I am planning to tint the windows and change the lights. I was slightly disappointed that the performance tires only have a life span of 20,000 miles. Have anyone driven theirs in snow yet?

Hoyer Global? Doesn't sounds fimiliar to me. But, via google, i see it's a transport-company. I'm not really into the transport business, i'm a IT guy (a.k.a nerd)! You've bin to holland already for holliday?

I'm sure the car will not disappoint me. The dealer already invited me for a test drive but i dont want to, i want the car to be a suprise It's hard, but i even dont want to see the car in real until i see mine first! But last week i've seen it's *** already on the highway but i quickly looked away! haha..

 

[Hey Gurl]

Yep, it's a transport company. IT guys are smarter! hehe


That is so funny. You won't even look at the car until it is actually your's. You won't even go test drive it?? hehe You are hilarious! ;-)
