Re: Help with offer
I just wanted to thank everyone for their input. I did purchase the car and in question and have nothing but good news!
news to report!
While I did not get the car for $10K as some suggested I do feel I got a decent deal. And to think I originally was going to offer the seller full price, your support gave me the courage to obtain the car for much less. While I did review the maintenance records before purchase I was able to go through them more thoroughly and leisurely once the car was purchased. In 2011 the previous owner had replaced the water pump, brakes, the RMS and clutch. Adding up to thousands of dollars. Many of the picky items that surfaced during the PPI turned out to be false alarms (i.e. the emergency brake reportedly did not work, but it checked out fine when I tested it, not to mention the tech who, just today, performed the annual MA safety inspection).
