So im checking autotrader again

[offroadkarter]

I found that these look to be the best deal. I'd love a SB, but they are going for to much, and black is also a color i want, and i found these 2

22k miles for 17 grand, thats like the biggest bargain ive found yet

But wait! I just logged on cars.com and found this!

http://www.cars.com/go/search/detail.jsp;?tracktype=usedcc&searchType=21&pageNumber=0&numResultsPerPage=50&largeNumResultsPerPage=0&sortorder=descending&sortfield=PRICE+descending&certifiedOnly=false&criteria=K-%7CE-%7CM-_32_%7CD-_3758_%7CN-N%7CR-30%7CI-1%7CP-PRICE+descending%7CQ-descending%7CZ-08850&aff=national&paId=134613483&recnum=1&leadExists=true

And it being in NJ is a huge plus, as the other 2 were in NY and PA

Although carfax says everything was fine except it says it was in an accident

Roylapita can you run the vin for me?

[RoyLPita]

The 1st VIN has a rebuilt title.
The 2nd has a transferable extended policy and has never seen a dealer for warranty work.
The 3rd was only in for a driver master switch and right window motor.

Choose your weapon. :D

[Raudermaster]

Stay away from the first one. For some reason the rear end looks way too low, even though it's on an incline, but it doesn't look that steep. I'd go with the 2nd one. Still cheap, and like you said it's from a dealer.

[offroadkarter]

Well that narrows down to the 2nd and 3rd one, although the 3rd one, carfax says it was in an accident, but no frame or drivetrain accident, I think it happened in somerset county, so im guessing it was a minor fender bender, which if the car looks normal in person i could forget that. Its like 20 minutes from my house, so ill see if i can look at it on friday or Saturday.

I bought mine out of NJ and had no problems with it. Bout time you get one!

Im tryin im tryin! :D

[offroadkarter]

I was looking at the carfax, and it says right side was the only part damaged, as it struck another vehicle. Although they never took pics of the right side :confused: from the rear it doesnt look damaged and the 1 right side picture of the rim, it doesnt look damaged either, although one picture is questionable, so ill let the experts decide.

The only way to be sure is to go look at the car. It also maybe one of the rare 300A/B transition models. All the more reason to jump on it. I took a hit last year in the drivers side and you'd never know it. Other than a crack in the paint that will be fixed by the insurance co's lifetime warranty on the repairs.
