Weber experts need help!

Can someone identify what type of performer this is?





I'm looking to buy it for say $150?
Is it a good deal?

Looks just like my 2013 model Performer.  The only difference I see vs mine is it has the black ash catcher pot where mine is silver.  Not sure on the year that they came with the black pots. 
Platinum Performer Kettle (In Blue), OTG (In Blue)
Genesis Gasser (In Blue), Smokey Joe (Uline Lime)
Looking to buy (18.5 blue or brownie and blue lantern)

Also great eye on catching that.

$150 seems good to me...
Not everyone deserves to know the real you. Let them criticize who they think you are.

Here in California they range from free, $50 to $150.
I paid $40 for a 2012 with a missing table. Luckily Dazzo gave me a table when he replaced his with granite. I think it depends on your location.

I wish I could pick one up for $50. Saw one for 100 but it was beat.

Same price as a new one touch  gold. It is a pretty good deal. I just picked up a 2008 lime green performer for $75 recently - I am picky and only go for the really good deals. As others have said, 50-100 is on the cheaper end. In NJ you see them usually in the 125-200 range.

VMy only concern is the drive is really far from me through heavy traffic.

And as one user said it is a older model with the black ash catcher. 

I also have no idea what condition the grates are in.

Also, does this model have a one touch lighter on it?

Thanks for the feed back and one more question.

Will this fit in a land cruiser?

On it's side it should fit. Bring a tarp to protect the carpet. I just fit a OTG in a VW jetta

The buttons below the word Performer, I believe are the controls for the lighter..........

May even fit in the vehicle standing up, with just the lid removed, tall, but not THAT tall.............

I was able to fit a SS performer into the back of a acura mdx. The SS performers aren't as tall  as the newer ones with the thermoset table. My wife wasn't too happy, as it was a tight fit and left a black smear on the inside of the roof.

I believe the buttons are tool hangers.

Yup, tool hangers. The gas control is under the flip up cover on the right. I fit a similar model in the back of my Volvo wagon easily. Your land cruiser should present no challenge.
