Sup everybody?
I am purchasing an '03 Monte Carlo LS tomorrow. I am super excited. Its the one in my current signature. Black on black.
The CarFax is PERFECT. Literally, perfect. 1 older owner - bought it brand new in 2003. No damage reports. The only servicing the car has been through is the oil changes. It has 66,000 miles on it. The guy (now deceased) babied this Monte'.
My brother and I test drove and it drives so smooth. A LITTLE bit of vibration in the steering column - but very slightly. My brother told me for $5,500 - It was going to be hard for me to find anything with this low of mileage in THIS good of shape.
I am also getting a 2nd set of tires this guys brother had for the summer time with chrome spoke rims.
Although - I do know things can happen.
I was just wondering if any of you might have some advice for me? I am going to buy it tomorrow and I know I should take it to a mechanic. What are some questions or things to tell them when I bring it in for a checkup?
Again - this car is really nice. Interior is pristine almost. Just a few paint errors on the back hatch but nothing thats not fixable for cheap.
I am very excited to purchase this car and I just want to make it last well past the 200,000 mile marker.
Advice?
