Default Do not buy this car!

http://washingtondc.craigslist.org/n...967566002.html

My old car Twas beat to hell on a daily basis. When I parted out, it was put together very halfass, missing TONS of parts, ebrake from left rear is gone, not to mention you'll need a brand new hub assembly. It is a track edition, though, I have the normal wheels on it (thanks Danny!) There is NO RADIO AT ALL in the car. Interior is extremely loose, very squeaky.

Unless they fixed all of this ****, stay away from it. Hell, the only real deal you are getting is some half done vinyl! On a side note, I got 14k for it on trade in

I wouldn't feel right having somebody driving my old car, knowing that I beat it to death each and every time I drove it! Not to mention the missing parts....

I guess you didnt see the part where it said "Advertised sales price are shown with $3000.00 cash down or equivalent trade plus processing fee & title."

Price is 15k

That just means you have to put down 3k minimum, the rest you can finance. If someone can talk it down to 10k, that car wouldn't be such a bad deal.

I can't believe they didn't try to pull the stickers prior to selling though. Not a big market for decal'd cars, especially at a dealer

13k would be good for that car, id all the parts were taken care of. It's a low mile track edition, too bad there aren't any track wheels to go with it!
