ive been looking for a 05-07 sti for a few months now. 60-80k miles for around 16-17k ish. stock or lightly modded, the usual. too much too ask? i knew it would be difficult but not this hard. ive had to deal with now 3 dumbasses/assholes. hear me out on this.
1st one (asshole)- this guy was from the site and i went to drive 4 hours to see his car, just what i wanted. he is VERY unorganized and didnt know where his title or even his registration was. we finally agree on 17k for his car (im happy at this point). then few weeks go by while he tries to get his registration and title. then i get a message saying "i have a local offer of 17750." so he sold the car to that guy after he told me he would sell it to me.
2nd one (dumbass)- drive 3 hours away from me to a dealer that had an 04 for a good price. i talked to the manager the day before and he told me the car was stock. after we get there, after all the gay detours, the ****ing car is modded. tbe, turbo timer, intake, etc. thanks, waste of a trip.
3rd one (both)- ive been talking to this guy for the last 2 weeks, good deal one the car but id have to drive 900 miles. this guy told me that he owned it for a few months, but selling to ease the payments on his house. he said it had a clean title when CARMAX showed him the carfax when he bought it and it was a one owner car. car is great and has cbe, springs, and sitting on awesome wheels and was NEVER tuned. we settle on a price (16250) considering i have to drive to pick it up. well i run a carfax and i see it has 3 owners, HAS BEEN WRECKED, and FAILED EMISSIONS. seriously? so much for never been tuned or no accidents.
maybe im complaining about nothing, but it would definately piss alot of you off.
