Default 2001 Spa Yellow used car has caught my eye...

Hey guys,

I've noticed a bunch of yellow 2001 S2K's for sale in Ontario.

I read in a search that a lot of the spa's available in the 2001 year range were wrecked and repaired... how can I be sure? what should I look out for?

Thanks... I need your help because it looks like the price is too good to be true

$24,000
44,000 kms

The guy has a 613 area code.

did you call him and get info on the car?

Did you run it through and get the history on it?

I'm from the west (I'm not sure the way you check car history here in Ontario) but you can do lots of checks to make sure before you buy you just need to put some moeny in it to cover yourself.

Haha, he meant originally.

613, dude you can give me his number / information. Did you call him?

I can check the car out for your if you want if he is within the Ottawa area. 613 is a HUGE area so it might not be close, but you never know.

PM me. I'd rather you call and ask first though. $24,000 seems like a smokin' deal IE too good to be true though.

I called for you, he's only about 15 min from my place.

He said, front bumper has been replaced and left fender. No frame or airbags went off.

I can swing by and check it out, funny thing is, I don't think that car came from Ottawa.... wonder if it is Fredo's car? Probably not though, it does have clear lights.... hehe anyone want to trade non-clears for clears with this car

Anyway, let me know if you want me to take a peak at it's condition for you. I can probably take it for a drive too see if it feels funny or anything.

Interesting, because if it is Alfredo's car (only reason I suspect is the clear headlights), it was totalled, but most of the damage was on one side......

We are doing a drive tomorrow so it will probably have to be Monday, I can call again Sunday but they probably are not open. I'll see if I can stop by Monday and scoop it for you.

Anyone know the VIN # of Alfredo's car?
