elcolombiano91 01-25-2009 07:12 PM

robrecht 01-25-2009 07:17 PM

Very good deal if it's clean, especially if the recalls were done in a timely fashion. Welcom to the club!

Renesis07 01-25-2009 08:10 PM

looks good man, you may actually be able to get it a little lower in price. Make sure to negotiate.

MyEnemy 01-25-2009 08:22 PM

I would second the opinion to make sure all service bulletins were done, other then that nice looking car and congrats on your new car

always.anthony 01-26-2009 03:22 PM

i talk to them today, we said we'd pay that price no haggling, if they shipped it to us for free. (im in houston tx!!!!) and they said okay for now and thanks for that, i'll remind them to do all the services!!!!


ahhh i can't wait. been searching for forever!

oh you're right those do look like mazdaspeed rims!!! yip a its a bonus! :)

EDIT: those might not be mazdaspeed rims :( from what i've researched they only come in gold and gunmetal, and thats SILVER they are probably ASA JH8's http://i227.photobucket.com/albums/d...Picture028.jpg

04RX8man 01-26-2009 03:54 PM

yeah i'm pretty sur they are NOT MS

Spoolin8 01-26-2009 03:58 PM

so you are buying the car without even looking it over and test driving it first?

robrecht 01-26-2009 05:20 PM

I've had a car delivered to my house before. But the sale was still dependent upon my inspection and test drive. Signed the papers at my kitchen table. It was a very nice way to buy a car.

always.anthony 01-26-2009 06:24 PM

cousin yelled at me to buy it, he test drove it, and said nothing was out of the ordinary, but he did say that the cosmetic was 10/10 looked as if it just came outta the factory.

and :sad: for non ms wheels

is there anything i should be concerned about?i asked them about the service bulletins, and they said they will get back with me. anything else i should be concerned about as to purchasing used?

(does the warranty transfer over to a new driver btw?)

Yes, the warranty transfers. The only other thing to be worried about, other than compression, is whether or not someone else may come along and buy it out from under you. Not too likely these days.

AAChaoshand 01-26-2009 07:02 PM

bro check the carfax report dude, I looked at the initial and it had 5 records, make sure this isnt a flood car, a rebuild from a wreck or anything. Not something I would want, I will go pay 30 grand for a new one before I buy a POS man. If nothing than you got a good deal because I payed 21 grand for my 05 and it had 17k miles on it with an included VSC.

AAChaoshand 01-26-2009 07:03 PM

And just because he test drove it doesn't mean it's good. Not discrediting him or anything but drive it yourself. This sounds fishy for such low mileage...

ferg 01-26-2009 07:43 PM

its not fishy, because i got my 06 for 16k with 11k miles

AAChaoshand 01-26-2009 08:56 PM

I'm just saying, don't hit the ground running for a car as it seems the OP is. I'm really anal when I buy a car as I want it to last as long as it can and having any previous issues doesn't help. Unless your buying new, then who cares, if it's a lemon you can get another one.

Zerotide 01-26-2009 08:59 PM

I took mine into Mazda for full inspection before buying. Came out healthy as a horse and I felt better about buying it. I'd reccomend this for any used car purchase.

AAChaoshand 01-26-2009 09:01 PM

Yeah thats what I did and when they told me that one of my front brake rotors where fine I told them I wasn't buying the damn thing and they put a new one on. I mean come on the damn thing had a gash all the way around it. I don't know how the old lady did that who owned it previously but geezus, for a Department of Public Safety lady she didn't know how to drive a car.

always.anthony 01-26-2009 09:42 PM

Kevo, has gotten the carfax report for it, and said it was clean. (thanks again Kevo!!!!!)

but i do very much appreciate your concern. he said no one has touched it for a while, and i will be sure to tell him to get a full inspection and email it to me. thank you thank you all!

thanks for again for all the input, such a great forum!!!

update:
parents talked to them on the phone today, getting more stuff done tomorrow.
