A clean car from a serious seller $6k
WTB: A clean car from a serious seller. Please read the situation carefully:
For the past year I’ve been living in Europe and now I’m coming back to the states (North Atlanta) to visit my parents. I will be there starting July 19th for about 2 weeks at which time I’d like to buy a clean car to haul most of my belongings to my future apt in NYC. I am looking for a mature, honest, and serious seller; you know if you are one. I have to do most of the communicating via online before we actually meet and I would hate to find out the car is not exactly as described, so no time-wasters. If you’re not 100% serious don’t contact me; I literally don’t have the time for BSers. I am very clear and upfront and you should be too. If after discussing business I do tell you that I’ll buy it, I want you to hold it without a deposit. This sounds unfair but remember I have less than 2 weeks to buy a car, which is more time than you have to sell it – so if I say I’ll buy it it’s as good as sold; unless of course I find out you’re BSing me, in which case you shouldn’t be contacting me first of all. I am not trying to sound like a jerk, I’m just trying to weed out the terrible sellers so that the real sellers can deal with someone with cash, no drama, and will definitely be buying a car before the end of month. Since the car has to be driven to NY, needless to say I want it in pristine mechanical condition, no exceptions. That means I won’t accept even a minor CEL or a squeak. If it’s so minor in the first place, you, as the owner that I expect to be, should have taken care of it.
Since I don’t have anything specific in mind other than what’s listed below, my tentative price range is between 3-6k cash. I am pretty open to various makes/models/colors as long as it’s clean and runs well. Ideally I would like a simple low-mileage Integra. But I am open to cars with power as long as they have been well built and taken care of i.e. tuned with no shortcuts. I am not sure if I’m getting back into the ‘scene’, plus I don’t know how much use I will have with a car in NYC without a garage. Moreover, I’ve had 3 cars stolen from me, and in NYC this could sadly be number 4; so I’m playing it safe by looking for not the nicest car, but what I feel is the best overall deal. That doesn’t mean I’m a low-baller but NY isn’t cheap and as a jobless PhD student I have to keep that in mind; also a serious seller should know that I’m not a naive 19yr old looking for his first car. Vouches and documents regarding maintenance, products, and proof of legitimacy are well appreciated, especially if it’s swapped/built.
Here are my basic requirements:
Less than 150k miles on a healthy motor
Smooth manual tranny
No body rust ever
At least 8/10 interior and exterior (I will consider properly gutted interiors, more room for my stuff)
Coupes/hatches only
Title in hand (I don’t care about title condition if priced accordingly)
Everything works (I don’t care if it has a/c or p/s or power options)
No ricers, no show cars, no track cars, no projects – just a straight up clean street car
Contact: [email protected] email with specific details, recent photos, and your price given what I’ve said. Again, I am looking to buy in the last 2 weeks of July.
Thanks
