so finally... last test drive tomorrow.
okay, been looking at this CL i posted about earlier, and I have the car sold to me for basically 5 grand with tax and license taken care of. The drivers side window wasn't working before, but they said they have fixed it, i figured its probably just one of the regulator/motor problems everyone encounters. I test drove it, played around with all the gadgets except for cruise control, popped hood, and trunk... and my question is.... ANY LAST minute advice you guys have as to what I should look for? common probs I should watch out for?
Cause if all goes well I will have the car by tomorrow and be an official a-cl newbie.
btw... it wasn't as immaculate as i thought, pictures can be deceiving, but its nothing major just a scrape on the lip, the plastic not color matched why, and minor scrape on left side by the molding... other than that its good.

what plastic?
you mean on the bottom? like, lowest part of the frame
it's not painted on the 97 models, but on 98-99 they are painted
so that "plastic" (i think thats wut ur talking about) will be like, plastic black, but not dark black.
Nice price tho

the heated seats go out all the time and so do the EGR's but that stuff is obvious. Just make sure the AC blows cold, check the alignment on the highway and get under the car and look for torn cv boots and exhausts that are about to go.

Make sure you vary the way you drive it...left & right turns, reverse..fast acceleration, breaking...just be sure to look at every thing possible...try to also bring someone with you as they may notice something you might not.
