[QUOTE="bimmerholic, post: 351487, member: 16686"] Just to share with you guys my buying policy of a car 1) I NEVER trust dealers. They can say whatever they want. I always assume everything they say it's a lie. Trust me, you can never go wrong. I only go to them to do my homework since they've got many units available at their place. 2) Must be 1 owner driven and currently still driving. (not sleeping in the house) 3) Always buy from the owner directly. If he has bought it from a dealer previously, drop the idea of buying. 4) Seeing is believing. It has to come with full service record, repair bills and so on...Looking at the purchase invoice of your car at the price of close to RM300k is something altogether... 5) The car must be in the "condition" that you're expecting based on the year/mileage and weather mostly city or H/way driven. 6) Always bring it to a mechanic to check for yoruself, and inspect the car yourself together with the mechanic. Everyone knows a thing or two about cars, so that's a good starting point. 7) If there's plenty of wear & tear parts to be replaced, negotiate with the owner further. If it's just beyond your reach, then gotta keep looking. [/QUOTE]
