Could someone near Oak Lawn, IL check out an 8 for me?

I am in Seattle, but there is a used 8 at Oak Lawn Mazda that I am interested in.

If it works out, I would like go visit a few friends in the area, and buy the car and have it shipped back. But I would really appreciate it if someone could check out the car to see if it is really as clean as the dealer is claiming before I go through the trouble. Please let me know if you might be willing to help me out here.

I posted this on the EvolvChicago forum to see if there is someone in that area that can help.

I wish I had seen this yesterday. I was down there and I picked up a used speed6 for my wife from that dealership. So far so good.

M,

I will be going back down to that dealership sometime this week. Let me know if you still need anything checked out. I can tell you that the dealership is pretty nice. All the high end used stuff is kept in a big indoor warehouse. I saw at least 10 RX-8's when I was there on Friday. Let me know which one you were looking at and I will check it out and provide feedback.

Caleb

I think that someone already may have helped him with this and he isn't looking for post anymore. Try to PM him and see if he still needs assistance.
