Looking for a J

[panther1400]

Thanks for all the advice you guys gave me between a 201 and a 231 I feel at this point and for the big part of my needs and the amount both planes take financially to own, the J is the best fit for me now (hope some day in the future I will have more time to fly more long trips).

So I am in need of some help looking for a J. 

I am pretty open minded in the plane I am looking for because there are usually benifits to all kinds and conditions.

I bought my J almost one year ago.  Best decision ever!  But my best advice is to be patient for the right one to come along.  I had a TAP subscription but ended up finding mine on Controller.  Look everywhere and do your research.  I found AOPA to have a lot of suggestions and the buyer's checklist was very helpful.  Rate what is most important to you.  I wanted a low time engine, fair interior, fair paint, older avionics and a good auto-pilot.  I wanted to do a custom panel with my own avionics.  Makes it feel more like mine.  In time, I will take care of the rest. But for now I have exactly what I was looking for.  Good luck finding your J!!!

Can I ask what year and hours and avionics you ended up finding?
