that's a pretty good price....I would drive it, check it out....

look at -
- oil - what does it look like? do they take care of the car?
- tranny fluid - it is nice, bright red? or brown? have they taken care of the tranny?
- how is the shifting under normal driving? under WOT?
- does the car bounce too much when pushed down? (bad struts)
- any problems with title? (carfax)
- if there are any aftermarket components, are they brand name and were they installed well? Or does it look like anything was "jimmy'd" in?
- do all of the electric devices work? CHECK THEM ALL!!!

good luck

It will still have the 100k warranty on the tranny, so it's up to you what kind of service he had on it.

Considering you're covered for another 25k+ miles on the tranny, that 12k is a small price to pay for a great car. I'd do it.

That is a pretty good deal. Did you test drive it? What color?
