I can't see anything wrong with the vehicle from the pictures and overly excited text description on Autotrader. Since your Dad is a mechanic, he'll be the expert when he drives it.

Sorry man, but it's more complicated than just some pictures. We can't really tell or see anything wrong with it. You have to test drive it and see for yourself. Good luck.

BTW, the anntena is missing (it's obvious).

^^they probably took it off themselves so it doesn't get jacked.

besides the fact that the interior is tan, you can't tell if anything else is wrong with the car from those pics.

If he's not familiar with the car, he may not notice a few things.

Heck, there are plenty of stories of Honda "certified" and CarMax "certified" cars that self-combust within a few hundred miles.

If you think there's something wrong with the car, I wouldn't buy it.

I don't see any modifications on the outside. Make sure the VIN is on the front bumper to see if it was involved in a front end crash.

How can we see anything wrong with the car in the pictures? If you have a bad feeling, then why purchase it?

I hate used car dealers. I'm always more relaxed dealing with a private party because they tend to be more honest.

Just look at the description of the car....it screams ''something is wrong'' lol
