    i may, the shop at zx on 159 said a guy might be quitting and i may possibly try getting in there..
    thought about valvoline, or a parts store.
    even delivery service is better. than roofing in my opinion.
    only advantage roofing has is the pay.

    and just now my chat says " you can only have so many posts in a day.. i didnt even send that many chats.. lmao

    I love drinking.

    And my friend is buying my car tomorrow and i will meet up with the guy tomororw. Ill ask more about maint. and maybe a carfax or some ****. anything specific i should look for in the engine? it is 100% stock in every single way, and it's all perfectly clean and barely wore down anywhere in or on the car.

    Basically just check for any signs of leaks underneath and check the trans fluid. Make sure it hasn't been cooked. And a decent test drive for shifting or steering issues. Those are my only real pet-peeves with any vehicle. A car as new as an 08 "shouldn't" have any problems. :-P

    is it possible to take it to autozone or something and have them check out basic stuff for free or something? I feel like i wont be able to tell by just looking at it obviously, but i dont buy cars everyday so im not exactly how i would go about getting it double checked.

    ahh, if we all met up. id have the worst one there:P

    edit; They can scan the codes for you.
    other than that..depending on the year. just check for leaks, rust, wear, any funny **** while your driving it.. ( dont have the radio on.. until your done checking whatever)

    Lol. I'm a dumba$$. I was reading another thread right before I responded. My 02 GTP had a vibration when turning right and getting on the throttle. Other than that it was pretty nice.
