take your next purchase to a mechanic and pay for an inspection. 100$ can save you a lot of grief.

 

another question....how old are you OP?

 

I have a pair of cats that I will sell you.

 

This will be an expensive lesson. Buyer beware.

 

Wow...at the school that you mentioned, did you fail common sense 101?

 

 

I wish I could offer you some helpful advice, but I'm afraid the fact is that you got scammed. You mention getting familiar with the car after you had bought it. Did you examine this car or drive it? Did you have a professional mechanic check the car out beforehand? Actually, I already know the answer is no or you would never have bought the piece of junk.

I hope you at least learned a lesson from this. Now if you'll excuse me, I need to lawl.

 

Ditto!

 

I don't know what dealership legally can sell a car w/o proper emissions devices that was originally equipped with them from the manufacturer.

So, no matter what is wrong with the car, there's a strong chance you hold the upper hand unless there was some clause in the selling paperwork that says it's not street legal.

 

Wow... I feel bad for ya...

I bought my Z used too but we had it checked out before handing over the check. Havent had any problems at all.

But seeing that you bought it from a dealership, check with a lawyer there may be something you can do.

 

This is easily THE fail post of 2009.

 

Some stories are better off not repeated or worse,posted on here.What a boner move.

 

+1 totally agree

 

the only helpful advice i can give you is they sold an illegal car which from what i know you can get your money back for everything that ahd to be done to it prior to buying it as well as the price of the car. get with a good lawyer.

and now to flame a bit because i think this little episiode teaches you a damn good lesson. when i bought my Z i knew more about it than the dealership did. i knew everything that was wrong with it and made them fix it, radio was tampered with by previous owner, replaced the stock head unit no biggy. you need to really look at what your buying when you are spending a good amount of money. this is a good lesson that you need to really think before you buy.
sorry for the money loss get a good lawyer and maybe you can turn that around.

until then, flame on!!!!!!

 

That sucks man, Not really a lemon. Im not sure if you could get a refund if its been 3 months since that sale??? Might be hard to prove they sold it that way

 

ouch... very sad research (if any) before buying.

 

24k for an 06 was a good deal to you? i bought my 06 for 22k and it was the highest trim available, you didnt even bother to give the car a test drive either? i mean you honestly just thought hey these are good people, and of all places jamaica queens!! i dont feel bad at all, they found a sucker and just silverbacked you good.

 

Hey guys, go back and read all his posts. Lol!

I actually posted in that topic and forgot.

 

holy crap you didn't drive the car before you paid for it?

I'm sorry, but you're plain dumb, that was a very stupid move, now its time to pay for the stupidity with $$$

 

Should have had him look at it before you bought it.
