that is really low miles, which worries me. it's possibly rolled back, or maybe worse, it just sat there. cars are meant to be driven. at just over 4000 miles per year it's possible that the car was not driven regularly. check the carfax on it and see if the title has been transfered. maybe her husband or someone in her family bought the car and then keeled over. for all you know the car has been sitting there for years.

if that's the case you're likely to have problems down the line. just something to check on before you make the decision.

also, it's not a particularly great price, 2003's with more equipment and normal mileage go for as much or less.

 

That is true, but they are a lot harder to find too. I've heard mixed things about a car sitting for long periods of time, If it is stored properly then it can be OK, but it should be started periodically and ran if the fluids were left in it. It may turn out to be the "luck of the draw"-type deal. I would just ask why it has low miles, how it was stored, etc...

 

I consider myself pretty lucky and I am super happy with my purchase. About a month ago, I bought a 2001 Maxima SE with 47K miles from the original owner who upgraded the wheels and got pretty much every option except for Meridian. He got a 7 yr/75000 mile extended warranty which I am going to be enjoying until June 2008. Did I mention the car was immaculate inside and out. The guy had every service record and everything. It was definitely an ideal buy. Car is supoer clean.

I paid $10,500. So yes, that is a hell of a deal if you can get that car for that price. Just make sure you get a carfac report and fully give the car a once over and check to see that the parts/wear match the 26K miles.

 

DAMN 26K miles! thats low...only problem is, ITS SOUNDS "TOO GOOD"

 

Oh yeah...here is a pic...

 

WHAT! where in the hell have you been living at!?

IVE NEVER SEEN A 2K3 less than 11,500 LET ALONE LOWER THAN THAT!!

 

look man, you cant just hotlink like that, lol


ASSIST:

 

Why not? Is that illegal or something?

 

nah, nothing bad on your part...i was just messing with you..But the problem with hotlinking is that it uses the BANDWIDTH OF THE SOURCE OF WHICH IT CAME FROM...and alot of forums when you attempt to hotlink it will restrict it because its leeching bandwidth from the other site

 

So, how can I post pics much like you did?

you need more practice at teh interwebs. contrary to your sig you prob. can not "FIX COMPUTER FOR REAL", if you can't "GRAMMAR REAL GOOD" or "SEARCH WEBZ HARD"

 

I got mine of Autotrader.com, but kept the search close to home.

 

Man those are good deals, sure neither of them are salvage titles?

 

carfaxed both. they're clear title

 

eh STFU.....the fact still remains YOU DONT KNOW **** ABOUT A COMPUTER LET ALONE BUILDING OR FIXING ONE! Also ever heard of a typo you damn smart ***

I still dont buy the legitimacy of those two cars you posted....The 2k2 has 85000 miles on it and it was probably beaten to HELL

 

so i guess i stumbled into having A+, Network +, CCNA, CCIE, HP and Dell factory certifications without knowing anything about computers. and let's not forget my amazing ability to use the interwebs to find cars.

you sir, have certainly bested me at "FIXING COMPUTER'S FOR REAL". i tip my hat to you. not only for your amazing skills with "COMPUTER'S" but also your GRAMMARZ. i don't know if I can sleep tonight, having been so roundly dispatched with. you sir, truly, "DO IT FOR REAL"

 

So you still havent stated anything.......I guess i only stumbled into having A+, Network+, Security+, MCSE, and CCNA......as well.......AND IM ONLY FU*KING 21 YEARS OLD, i dont give a damn about you boasting the same IT certs....c'mon get real...oh and by the way, HP and DELL certs are a bullsh!t waste of time *sarcastically* GEE i didnt even think they were worthy of being certs

oh also i forgot to mention.......HMM you stated you have CCNA AND CCIE.....well how did you go from CCNA......straight to CCIE......YOU FORGOT CCNP dumb a$$....also ONLY 30 percent of the guys who even take a whack at CCIE....seeing IF THEY MAKE IT THAT FAR..........never even past the first friggin exam....I BET YOU DONT KNOW WHAT THE FIRST
CCIE EXAM CONSISTS OF DO YOU. you probably dont even know what ACL's, and vlans are

 

i don't want to get into more of a p!ssing match with you, since it's stupid. I'm 22, by the way. The reason that i went to CCIE is because that is what was required in order to receive a promotion at my previous job. no reason to waste time and money for another cert if it was not going to help me.

the HP and Dell certs were not ones I studied for; it just so happened that in order to perform product deployments the manufacturers wanted me to pass their exams. i won't bother defining terms for you because anyone could just google ACL or VLAN and spit out a definition.

i originally said what i did to prove a point, that being that a man of your impeccable credentials and unsurpassed intelligence really ought to know how to search for a car.

everyone else, i'm sorry for turning the thread into a senseless flamewar.

 

i dont have to google a damn thing, or spit out a definition, thats what my BRAIN is for especially when you are a geek about it.....you said what you did, TO THROW OUT, that you want to believe you are BETTER THAN SOME ONE, when it struck you that I HAVE JUST AS MUCH KNOWLEDGE AS YOU DO...bet you were not expecting that..I know how to search for a car...IM JUST NOT GOING ALL THE WAY TO INDIANA FOR ONE.

so on that note, i apologize for helping turn this into a flame war between dko and I

 

i apologized first. nyah nyah nyah nyah nyah

 

lol, IM TELLING MOMMY *going to PM mod*

 

used car value is a subjective thing. The car ou812 (more VH, just got that) is looking at may be in much better shape, mechanically and cosmetically, than the ones dko posted, and, if true, the seller knows what he has. He will either get it, or drop the price, or choose to keep the car.

 

i have a 2K1AE with only 37K miles..

 

i just got an 03 with 28100 miles...lil pricy though since i got it at a nissan stealership. 16.5k, turned into 19, plus financing interest since im only 18, new credit etc...turned into 28k.

yeah i know, a steal...but its extremely difficult to find one with such low miles and well takenen care of...

plus its the ONE car ive ALWAYS wanted. 03. not any other year...
