Ok, going to drive them both tomorrow. Thinking it'll be good to compare since they're the same year and pkg. Any advice on dealer haggling? I...
As risky as all that, huh? Would you say the same for a 2006 pkg 3 with 96k miles for $9,500? One older lady schoolteacher owner, well looked...
Okay, that one is out for sure. thanks for all the advice. I definitely don't need a money pit! How about a 2007 Touring model with 170k?...
It's covering the whole car. Just got back from the test drive and noticed that the battery charging icon on the display was only at two purple...
So, the odometer thing is potentially not a deal-breaker.... The ad says "clean title", so that should be okay. If he gets the inspection...
Okay, how bad is this? A 2005 Prius that has had the whole electronic panel replaced and thus the odometer, so they guy isn't sure what the...
Yeah, maybe you're right that they didn't see the significance of the gunk and thought that just washing it off would be okay... but it is bright...
Well, not knowing how to do it, it wouldn't cost me $60... and that $500 (or $487 actually) also included the drive belt and air filter. But the...
Well, buyers detest dealers who (1) make them wait 20 minutes before helping them on first visit; (2) then tell them that the car they like is not...
Thanks, OMG. Wise words. I'm tempted to warn other potential buyers about this dealer on yelp. My wife wanted out of the deal just on...
Thanks for all the tips, OMG. I had done most of them at one stage or another in the process. Unfortunately I didn't get the car. I decided I'd...
Nope, not within a few hundred miles of here. Toyota 200 miles away has a 2010 base for $15k, not certified. Locally they only have a 2005 with...
Well, it would be cool to have all the extras, and i'd use them.... But don't really need them. I guess if th 2006 was a lot cheaper it would be...
Good points. I actually hadn't even told the dealer i was going to do the inspection until he stood firm on his price. So yes, the offer is...
Just got off the phone with the dealer and they won't go lower than $12k. Still well below KBB, but not as good as I was hoping. Any thoughts?
True. My auto mechanics skills are pretty much non-existent beyond tire changing and jump starting :confused:
Just going by what OMG said about carfax. I guess a car could have an accident and not be reported, or diy repairs? They're charging $110 + $49...
A little worried that Carfax isn't totally accurate. There are no other service records. Toyota said they have an optional "compression test"...
There are just not a lot of Prii for sale around here, and they generally are listed for over KBB. Even on Craigslist with high mileage. This...
Thanks for the replies - sounds pretty unanimous that I should have it inspected by Toyota before signing on the dotted line.... Which kind of...
