I think $3,500 for a 2002 Intrigue is a steal. Make sure there is nothing wrong with the tranny = make sure it shifts smoothly and holds all the gears when backing off. Look for engine noise also, a sort of tapping sound that won't go away. Water damage on the front passenger side under the carpet. Air conditioner/heater check. Watch the engine heat meter and make sure it doesn't go over the 1/2 mark.

If there are no engine or tranny problems I think it's a good deal. I would then take off the tranny pan and change the tranny fluid and filter. Change the engine oil to Mobile 1 5W-30, change the oil filter also. Think about changing the coolant out.

I wouldn't trust a car salesman, and the price seems low. = You would think there was something wrong with this car. $3,500 is a steal for a good car with the 3.5L and the Intrigue is a performer. You wouldn't find a 2002 Nissan Maxima, Accord V6 for $3,500 ~similiar performance.
