yeah probably cause there might be more problems. also if you get a new or used car it makes a difference, and if you pay it monthly by check or have direct bank account withdrawls.

I was told it had too many miles "39,000" and the battery kept dying....
give me a break. This check's good for 45 days, 04 blk/blk sedan might be an easier find at the right price - I just hope the interior looks like new. Don't people take care of their vehicles anymore!?

Nope. No updated interior. Just aero wipers, updated rims, updated front brakes, 3 spoke steering wheel (one used on the coupe), embiant light under mirror, clear lens foglights.

Such a low price on a 2004 with clear headlights? Might be a wreck repair. Be careful.
