Nice :p

[fatkid]

yeah i want really bad

[Greg Kulbick]

"Average" condition with 50k on it?

[fatkid]

yeah not to many miles on it which is nice

i just have to find out how much insurance will be now with a cobra im sure it will sky rocket and it has to be full insurance now cause were gettin a loan so im gonna be broke forever now but oh well its worth it

[Greg Kulbick]

I think you should take a close look at it in person. I for one wouldn't advertise a car as "average" if I were trying to sell it, especially with only 50k on it.

[fatkid]

yeah im gonna get all the details and everything

gotta call the guy and stuff


he is in tampa i bleive

Multi-colored interior:lol:

Looks good man but if you get it, you gotta ditch the GT rims and get some Cobras. Hope it works out for ya.

[fatkid]

yeah def. need to get the cobra r rims they r to bad ass not to have.

but hey i just want the car

just got a quote from geico about 210 bux a month for insurance not to bad

[brandboZ28]

Thats what I pay for 6 months:lol:

[fatkid]

r u serious

how the fuck do u manage that

give me the company name

[brandboZ28]

Liabilty only, the car is paid for therefor I dont have to have full coverage. I figure that if I do something stupid enough to get in a wreck, Ill pay for it myself and so far its worked out pretty damn good(knock on wood). The company name is Nationwide Insurance.

Honestly, the quote you got isnt that bad. You are a young male, thet are going to get you no matter what. Its something you are going to have to live with if you want a car like that. Now if you want to get a fox body or a older 4th gen camaro like mine(they are everywhere for 4k, 5k, and 6k) the insurance wouldnt be as much. Granted, when buying a lil older car like that, you could be buying trouble so its all hit or miss when it comes to that. I know it sucks without a car but my advise to you is, look around, for a long time if you have to and eventually you will find exactly what you want. That is exactly what I did and I think I have had pretty good luck when it comes to buying cars.

Get the VIN from the seller and run a CarFax on it BEFORE you go down there. Print it out and take it with you so you can confirm the VIN yourself when you see the car.

The reason for this is that it's easy for an unscrupulous seller to find another Cobra with the same color and year that hasn't been in a wreck and give that car's VIN until you sign the papers (when all you are thinking about is money and getting the car and not about whether or not he lied). You're thinking you're looking at the same car as the CarFax, but you're really not. :bs:

Greg is right about being wary after reading the seller's text. "Average condition" may just mean that for the number of years and mileage, it's not any better or worse than it should be at this point. Then again, it could mean that it just sux. :???:

I hope you get it, and that it turns out to be the perfect car. We just want to make sure you don't get screwed, so we're just being the voice of reason for ya. We've been there too and know how bad you want it. Have fun. [/gramps mode]

[fatkid]

thanks for all the help guys and i will take every last persons advice casue i do want this to go well and be bale to go through with it

[sstony]

car looks nice--200 miles away, but where exactly? insurance quote seems high unless you've got a bad driving record or your really young. my insurance is cotton states and i pay $650 for six months and thats for 2 cars--my ss, which has full coverage and my cherokee which has as little coverage as possible. my driving record isn't spotless but i am a little older :-o

[fatkid]

well im 17 and have had 1 ticket other than that im good my dad always likes to get the expensive as hell shit which pisses me off cause we ahve statefarm right now and when i had my talon insurance on liability only was 150 a month

[sstony]

well im 17 and have had 1 ticket
that's not a bad quote--i guess

I have State Farm and when I lived in Tallahassee I spoke with Tom over in Killearn. If you stack a couple of cars under your dad's name it should only be around $150. When I had my camaro with 2 speeding tickets my premiums came out to be only $113.48 per month stacked with full coverage. See what your agent can do for you. If not, when you turn 18 get something cheaper :headbang: !

[fatkid]

yeah when i get another car there will be 4 cars under my dads name but the insurance is still that high and i dun know why. But hey i guess thats just insurance for ya

[Bryan02TA]

yeah definitly check Carfax for odometer fraud. Unless it was garage kept and driven rarely that odomoter reading seems way too low.

Looks good though man, hope you get it.
