Found this car on CL looks really nice something I would consider, here's what I just found out fr seller.

1 supposedly needs a clutch
2 story is that it was bought w 22k miles and now it has 33k
3 here's the catch seller said that car fax says it has over 100k miles :-(

What do u all think or advise ?

I think he means 122k and 133k... There are not many 22k mile 10 year old cars around anymore.. Especially ones that look like that. Sorta cheesy mods on it speak to 122k if you know what I mean. In a nice way of course.

 

not worth it for that price.. or anywhere near it...
i'de offer $25,000 and settle on $27k. remove the wrap from the hood, and get Carbon Fiber side view mirror covers, repaint the brakes to OEM red and you got a hell of a car.

 

Yea not too crazy about the black hood n blue calipers

 

Read the ECU and see how many hours the engine has run. That will give you a better indication of actual miles. Divide the listed miles by hours and it should be around 30-35 mph average. Any number way off would be a huge red flag.

 

Im goign to go and ck it out tomorrow if it looks clean I might do a PPI and take it from there.

 

To the OP:

If you're looking for a car in SoCal in that price range, you may want to consider my car. I am putting it up for sale next week when I get the title back from the DMV - I just paid off the loan for an easier sale.
