I'm a retiree in Sarasota Fla interested in base M35 2007-2008 w/out NAV. Have never bought a used car before, and last car purchase was 10 yrs ago, so I'm out of touch. I'm looking for a certified PO car for between $25--$28K. Is that realistic or should I wait a few months? Any suggestions for contacting dealers -- using the internet form or emailing dealers in the Tampa Bay area? What about non-dealer sources like Autonation-- how much risk would I be taking on vs paying more for CPO from a dealer? Appreciate any help you could offer.

Replying to: ghstudio (May 11, 2009 9:23 pm) Hope to hear from folks who have gone out of their local area. Did you send emails to internet contacts listed on websites or to general mgr.? How risky is it to use non-dealer sources like CarMax and AutoNation? Also, price-- CReports shows price range of $22K to $28K for 2007 M35, but Edmunds TMV certified price is $34K. What's a realistic price benchmark for base M35 w/out NAV?

Am thinking of buying a fully loaded '06 M35 Sport (w/ Navi, Back-up Camera, Adaptive Cruise, Lane Departure, DVD, and more). Here's the kicker - it's got 150,000 miles!!!! Original owner is asking $13,500. Apparently, the guy bought it new for his roughly 200 mi per day commute. Claims there are have been no major issues and recently had rotors, pads, tires, and battery changed. Test drove the car and it does drive beautifully. Am I nuts for even considering this? Can someone with expertise give me some idea how long I can reasonably expect to drive this car before it dies? And what other maintenance should I expect? Thanks all.

Replying to: jchenirvine (May 15, 2009 9:07 pm) Can he show service records? Oil changes and tranny service? Timing belt change? I suggest an engine compression test and drivetrain inspection. Was it garaged or driven on salted roads? The electronics are a crap shoot but their longevity may not be related to mileage. Do power accessories like seats and windows work? a/c system and water or fuel pumps noises? Life of catalytic converter? Repairing any high mileage luxury car can be costly. $13,500 may be too much. Suggest a third party inspector and budget for repairs. Money for gas too. Mileage stinks. Consider a new Civic
