So I guess you could say I got fucked... The carfax on mine showed the car to be in excellent shape and everything was legit, numbers matched and everything, but something was done to mine that carfax didnt show and now im stuck with a "project" when i needed a daily driver.My opinion: make the owner take it through emission prior to the sale so you can see its good to go, run a carfax, and every other report you can, give it a good test drive that includes sitting in traffic, highway and city driving. Go somewhere where you can go WOT ( I didnt do this on mine and it makes a weird noise when you floor it ). FWIW Ill never buy off craigslist again, there are a lot of con artist out there just trying to make a buck and will do anything to make it.</blockquote>
