That is all, not trying to insult 23 year olds on here...I'm only 34, not like I don't remember what it was to be 23 and buy a nice car....I acutally bought my M3 then and it was a life lesson for me since I didn't do all my homework....and we are talking about a pretty big expense.
But - isn't he doing his homework? We don't know if he would take anybody's word for it.

That being said - I won't say one way or the other. I don't like buying used cars. Even "no story" cars have stories.

I've also said that if I could run into my 23 year old self right now, I'd kick his ***.....

It looks like it could potentially be a good buy.. I believe it was actually a California car at one point. I know at our shop we get 360's in all the time and I wouldn't be afraid of the miles, it all depends on the specific car. Just be sure to emphasize your focus on the condition and service. The add says it had its major service 18 months ago, see if they can provide the service record for that (as well as any other service documents available). Even with the major, an annual should have been performed as well since then. Like most of these guys have mentioned I would suggest a PPI or some sort of 3rd party inspection service. A PPI should be able to tell you any previous body work, as well as mechanical issues or any other potential problems. I hope it works out. Good luck with your potential buy.. I look forward to hearing how it goes!

Convertible car are nice but not my type... one more thing to be worry... one more thing that breaks....

I've never been a convertible person, but I feel the exact same way....I like coupes, I think they look better than their "spyder" counterpart, and less things to break....although, the Gallardo spyder I think looks better than the 360 spyder
