[JamesH1985]

hey, a local dealership is selling a

2001 Grand Am SE 4door
power windows
v6.0
am/stereo/cd
cruise
alloy wheels
140,000!!! miles, i think its moslty highway
Automatic

the price is 5000, i wanna get it because i could not fine a small car i wanted for less than 5K.. like a rx7 or an eclispe (any others simlilar)

Heres the thing, i am 19 with no credit, and i got someone to cosign for me so i can get this car, i dont know to much about cars but i know i like cars like a rx7 or eclipse alot, i also like the style of this grand am, but the deal seems really good, i test drove it and it was great, they are fixing a motor in the right power window and fixing it so that the blinkers work. My zip is 22407 and i searched on autotrader and didnt see a car that was in my range

thanks for reading

As far as the price goes sounds like a good deal. I would have it checked out by a mechanic first to be sure there are no hidden problems that you will regret later. 140K is not bad mileage these days but it could suffer from electrical and other mechanical problems that are not readily apparent. If they offer a warranty, I would spend the xtra money and just to protect your investment.

when i test drove it it was great, no problems at all other than the blinkers didnt work and a motor in the right window didnt go down but they said they will fix it before i buy it, as far as a warrenty, its 1 month or 30 days engine and transmission. i am gonna go buy it monday after i get all the paperwork signed and after a friend who is a mechanic looks at it. thanks for the post, if anyone else has input please please let me know
