I spotted a Blue Pearl w/light flint in Las Vegas on the used car lot of Desert Buick GMC. 64k in good condition it has some slight blemishes in the paint but no dents that I could see. 3 of the 4 rims have some very slight curb rash. It looks like it spent it life in the dry states NO under carrage rust at all. $15990

I'd take a close look if you're interested in this one, may be nothing but Carfax showed this when the vehicle was practically new:

I cant put my finger on it, but something about the rear doesnt look right to me. Maybe its just how the picture was taken.

Despite the accident it still looks fine.

When I looked this one over I thought it was a good rare find out on the west coast. I did not see any issues with the rear of the car. I looked under and around the car and only saw a few minor issues. The wheels as I posted before have some slight curb rash and the turn signals have been replaced with GM ones. If I could talk the wife into driving a MM I would get it for her but that is not going to happen.

Guess thats the passenger side, since they dont show it and drivers side looks OEM.

I did not go back and look at the drivers side after I saw GM one on the passenger side. But I could be totaly wrong too. We do not see many MM's out in Las Vegas. This is the only Blue I have ever seen in person and the only MM I have seen parked in at least a year.

Correct, she's being shipped. I had a buddy in SoCal check her out for me. It was about $200 more to ship than go get it and I can save 1,400 miles on the car as well as 2 days of my time. I wager I will have a couple of mods in my posession before the vehicle arrives.

I went out and looked at this car today (Sat) and test drove it. Then my nephew bought it. The moved on the price a little. While I was doing the paperwork, 3 people came in and wanted to test drive it. Then they put it in the back and I left my blue one out front and 2 more people came in and thought mine was the one for sale. Salesman asked me if there was something unusual about the blue ones since they have been getting calls from all over the country since it went on the internet.

I remember this car when it was sold new at the L/M dealer here.

To address the other posts. Both side markers are MM. They are smoked and match the ones in my Blue MM. The taillights and rear panel are MM and do not appear to have been removed by looking at the fasteners. Both front and rear bumpers have been repainted as I can see orange peel on them. It looks like they were painted on the car. So if it was bumped, it didn't bend any of the underbody (no pull marks, etc. I used to work in a body shop) There is a touched up key scratch on the L/R 1/4 panel and they touched up all the chips with the wrong color blue ( it actually comes off with compund). The interior is extremely clean. Everything works and this car idles so smooth you can't feel it running even with the A/C on. Not even our other 2 MM's do that! I think the trans has been redone as it shifts way too firm to have 65K miles on it, but not like a shift kit. The OD band comes on and releases good. The steering is tight and VSS works. Brakes are very good, but front rotors are slightly warped (as ususal). The windshield was chipped, but they are putting in a new one for N/C.

This car is 20 numbers off from mine.
It really is a very nice blue/lt flint MM. Got the payments where the nephew can handle them.
To say he is jazzed is an understatement.

Soooo, anyone in the market for a light ice blue pearl/lt flint leather CV LX with all the CVPI suspension and steering parts and drilled rotors. Overhead console (no homelink) with 92K miles on it. This car is also very clean. I told him he has to sell it to keep the MM. I think he has just about down that.

I would like to know the build sequence as I think it probably came down the line the same day as mine.

Thanks to Brian, the two Blues are brothers..Came out of the womb together.

Your MM's sequence number is 6673 of 7839.
Your MM's color sequence number is 101 of 327.

This MM is right before your other blue MM with no other MMs in between.
And #100 is here on MM.net as well.
