I live in Southern CA and am looking at buying an 06 HSE. I'm just trying to figure out a few things and maybe you guys can help?

1 - HSE vs. Supercharged - is the Supercharged worth the extra cost?

2 - how many miles are 'too many' for an 06. One of the SC's I've seen has 60k miles but the price is pretty good. Is that too many miles?

3 - should I get an extended warranty? I've read several posts about EW's and all I got was a headache.

4 - how much should I expect to pay for an EW?

Anything else I should consider?

Thanks!!!

I paid 32,500 for mine with 39000 miles right off of corporate lease.. I feel that I got a great deal as most prices were going for 36, I wouldn't pay more then 38 for a similar supercharged model

Anyone else?

Is an 06 SC with 60k miles too many miles for my first RR purchase. The price seems pretty good at 35k though.

My 2002 HSE has done just over 126,000 miles and still going strong.

I'd recommend you get a warranty though....it's bound to come in handy!

Good luck.

I had a very early '06 SC and it was great, if you don't go SC, at least look for one with the premium seats - best seats ever.

So as far as this 06 SC goes, it looks like I can get it w/ the 60k miles for about the same price as a low mileage standard version. I guess I'm just trying to decide and get some advice on weather it's safe to get an SC with that many miles or go for a lower mileage standard model. I really like the SC and that is wear I am leaning.

I just bought a 06 HSE with Luxury package and entertainment. Mine had 37,700 miles and I looked for 6 months. I ended up changing the grill and side vents to the supercharged and changed the wheels to 20 SC chrome.

My only advice that I can give is that whatever you buy, you will definitely want to see and touch and drive the truck. I found one online and everything was great and described by the seller to be perfect. I made the deal contingent upon me seeing the truck. I drove 4 hours to pick the truck up and test drove the truck and everything was checking out. The truck was fully loaded, luxury and entertainment package. I ran the carfax before going to see it and the only red flag was the truck spent it's life (one owner) in NY.

I was getting ready to close on the deal and crawled up under the truck and WOW!!!! The entire chasis was rusted out and every weld joint was rusted!!!!! I immediately backed out of the deal and kept looking and finally found my truck that I ended up buying.

The point of the story and what I learned is not to buy one on the internet unless I could lay my hands on it. Hope this helps. Do your research and you will find a cherry!!!

Good luck and Cheers
