Check the carfax report. If it's clean, you should be good. It doesn't seem too cheap, just cheap.

Ha ha on that. Carfax is not all that fantastic and only reports title changes. If somebody drove it for years over rough terrain with little oil, Carfax cannot report that. The only good thing to learn from Carfax is how good marketing on thier part has got people thinking it is a service and not a smoke screen.

If you want to be sure, ask to have the car inspected by an independent mechanic of your choosing. May cost you $100-$200 but may save you 100 to 1000's.

I hit a deer in my PT Cruiser and basically exploded the car, it was fixed by our mechanic/body shop and Carfax never knew about the accident. I know the car was fixed the right way so it's not a big deal but Carfax doesn't know EVERYTHING!

It looks like a great deal, I would try and test drive another 3 hatch just to make sure they both drive the same... and yes check it with a machanic.

Cost me to have it inspected on the property?

I have a couple of gear head friends who'd be down to come with and check it out...and I guess I could try going to another dealer to test one out.

I only personally know someone with a stick one...and I can't do that, lol

No if you take someone with you they aren't going to say anything...

I was referring to Rays post

Fyi that price isn't that cheap. Depending on the year and model used 3s are selling for that price. I know some some 3 members selling 06s near that price.

So was I...

He meant if you take the car off their lot to a shop to get looked at, that the shop would charge you for the inspection. But if you bring someone you trust to look at the car then there isn't anyone to pay.

If you can't drive stick, why look at this car? It's stick.

 

[skylar2ups]

Oh haha I didn't catch that.

 

[Stolen]

It says auto in the details, and yes I know it looks stick in the pictures, but I think I'm just hoping its not...lol

And who are these users that are selling for cheap???

 

[skylar2ups]

After looking at the pictures again... there is a scuff/scratch on the drivers side of the front bumper... and then another on the drivers side only on the back bumper...

It is def a many tranny.

Oh and it doesn't look clean... like it doesn't look like the last person took care of it at all, and if they didn't care what the inside looked like whose to say they changed to oil and what not... the engine bay looks really dirty imo.

 

[Stolen]

Really good points...thanks.

In the listing it says AUTO for Trans. But I see what you mean in the pictures.
