I just bought one of the "Georgia Dealer out of business auction" cars from a local dealer for $20,770 (MSRP $31,515). Out the door for $22,900 after TLS. It had 71 miles on it (68 before my test drive) and is certified pre-owned.

Power doors, backup sensors, solar glass, privacy (tinted) glass, 11 speaker Infinity system/DVD, auto headlights, roof crossbars, floor mats, cargo net, 17" Alloy wheels, etc.

Pretty much a fully loaded GLS minus the Bluetooth and First Aid Kit

I checked the roof for hail damage and don't see any. So if there was, they did a good job fixing it. So far so good.
Anyone else buy one of these? Just curious on what other have paid.

I'm thinking of installing a backup camera. It seems pretty simple. Has anyone done this yet?

Hey man, congrats on the purchase. We too purchased one of the models that came from GA. Must have been ONE heck of a large dealership with the amount of Entourages they had. We got the fully loaded limited model for 25,900, but we got something like 1,500-2,000 more for a trade in than other dealerships were offering as we were doing our shopping around. Overall we've had it for about 2 months and love it. Its my wife's car so I don't drive it that often, but on the weekends we always take it. Kind of funny to hear me say I enjoy driving a minivan (IMG:style_emoticons/default/grin.gif)

So it sounds like your model is pretty much a limited without the leather seats? I didn't realize that a GLS could be loaded with that type of a package. I'm curious do you have things like a sunroof, heated seats, power rear tailgate? In any case it sounds like you got a great deal.

As far as a rear camera, I wouldn't think it would be too bad. Probably the most time consuming thing would be to run the wires through the car. I haven't looked that closely to see where the best place to run them would be. To be perfectly honest, when we were shopping around I thought it would be nice to have a rear camera and considered adding one to the Entourage. However, we test drove an Odyssey that had one and it was EXTREMELY weird backing up. Ironically, I found it tough to judge the distance using the video display in the rear view mirror. I guess like anything its something you get used to. I think the backup sensors are great and seem to be very accurate in the Entourage, and as of now I don't plan to add a back up camera to it. If you install one, I'd be much interested to hear how things went though!

I also am enjoying it. I never thought I would be driving one but with another kid on the way, it's the most practical choice.

Yes, you pretty much listed everything it does not come with. The only leather in the car is the steering wheel and shift knob. So no leather/heated seats, power liftgate, and sunroof. Oh and no homelink/autodimming mirror.

As for the backup camera. I've been researching wireless and wired options with sun visor clip-ons as well as GPS combo's.
This one seems tempting to try since it is on sale for $69.99

I guess I got spoiled with the backup camera on our Nissan Murano.
