I saved a link to some tool site that had one for $119 but I had to reformat my harddrive and lost all my links so I can't find it. Does anyone know where I can get one at that price or less? My dads gonna buy it under the condition that I have to do his cars...which I'm more than happy to do as long as I get to do my car! :D
Also, wheres the best place to get pads for it? I was thinking Griots sold good stuff?

Coastal Tool is the place you want to go. The deal is $119.00 for the 5" polisher. The pad that comes with it is pretty useless so you'll need to buy other pads. CMA (see link below) has a pad kit that contains everything you'll need to get started. I bought mine there, and then purchased some pads a la carte from CMA because I felt the DM-KIT contained more than I needed.

Also, if there is a Lowe's in your area, they carry the PC 7336, which is the same machine sold as a 6" sander. It has the 6" counter weight. The price is usually $109.00. The deal from Coastal is for the PC 7424 and comes with a free bonus kit that includes the 6" counter weight and the 6" velco backing pad. If you get it at Lowe's you should buy the DM-KIT from CMA.
