Its a fucTMCTMCTMCTMC BRONCO! not a Jeep!
Alright guys, I narrowed it down to four models (Camry, Accord, Corolla, or Sonata).
It feels like it's taking forever to find "the one" but I think I may have come across it.
This one: http://phoenix.craigslist.org/evl/cto/2500846022.html
He's asking $9750 for it and it books in good condition for the same. The car itself appears to be in between good and excellent condition.
Here's my two problems, the guys says that it has had a break job in the last year but 1. The brakes feel like there pulsating a little when coming to a stop from highway speeds (not slamming on the brakes just slowly pressing down). and 2. the steering wheel has a slight vibration at 70mph.
are these things to be weary of or does it sound more like I need to balance the tires and check the pads (didn't today because it was hot as **** outside and the rims are darn near impossible to see through.
I'm going back tomorrow with my dad to have him double check everything and make sure it's all running fine. Is there any problems known to the corolla that I should watch out for? I know this probably isn't the best place to ask but I haven't joined a ricer forum yet and this is the next best thing.
He's the original owner
Gets 28-32mpg mixed driving
Clean title
no accidents
newer tires (in the last 12k)
no visible stains on the upholstery and the only thing wrong with the interior is the ash tray in the center console doesn't stay shut.
Shifts smooth and everything.
just need to know if i should be weary of anything.
oh and I'm thinking about offering him 9250, just because paying exactly kbb seems dumb to me (like paying the sticker price for a new car).
what do ya'll think?
