Looking to purchase. Carfax shows minor accident, number of owners per the carfax does not appear to be accurate (carfax only shows two, appears to be three)...

Taking a shot that maybe someone knows something more about this one.

 

i dont know the previous owner..but ive seen the car for sale when i was trying to sell mine and compare pricing..i sold my stock 07 Type-S with 65K Miles for 18k..

personally i love the blue, it has tasteful mods, aspec kit is 800 bucks plus install, that AEM intake is worth 225, and it has coilovers which are minimum of about 600 bucks. probably has camber arms and other small mods i cant tell.

the color looks like it matches really good if it was painted must have been minor, if you want a Type-S i say go for it. Take it for a test drive and if its straight buy it!

 

let me tell you something about my experience with car fax and car dealership.
the car fax said my car is clean, cause mom and pops car dealership buy cars from auction that may have been into an accident, but the original owner dont want to report it cause it will hurt their car sale.
CAR FAX is nice, BUT it AINT SHIT !!!!!!!!!!!!!! AIN"T SHIT.
if i can turn back time....................

 

buy certified cars or brand new cars with 100,000 miles warranteed, just to be safe. its what i am trying to say.

 

hahahahaha................. ok end of rant

 

thanks for the input guys. I've been buying and modding hondas/acuras for the last 15 years or so. I totally agree with you about the carfax thing, even though i just sold my highly modded 04 s2000 with clean carfax the buyer was a nut like me and didn't trust it.

I normally don't buy from dealers, and was hoping to find a bit more on this car as it has been local all it's life. time will tell today if i buy it.

there's a white 07 at fletcher jones audi but it has 115k miles which is a bit high for my tastes - although they're asking $13,000

 

fletcher jones link - thoughts on the mileage?

the blue one was beat. not a good experience.

started off watching the guy drive it over the curb onto the road, scraping the bottom heavily. tires were bald and cambered out, hood had a huge dent with bare metal in the middle rusted out about 1.5 x 1 inch. pulled hard to the left. cigarette burns, battery dead and needed a jump to test drive. significant noise from the rear driver wheel. center console armrest cover was busted. numerous deep scratches and dents.

then when we were going to tell the salesman no go after the test drive, a service tech floors it passed the dealership (at this point they didn't know if i was a buyer or not). further, the salesman told where they take the cars to beat on them and had me go there to "get on it". not a good experience - I wouldn't give them more than $4k for the car as an offer. very disappointing.

 

WOW! it looked really good in the pictures lol! thats a shame. must of been some dumb teenager who dropped it never did a good alignement to save his tires and just beat the shit out of it!

keep looking they pop up often, i would pass on one with over 80k miles...
