Was hoping to find someone with another cobalt in here but I couldn't find a single one. Also, stumbled across this in my dropbox. Can you guess which one is mine? x3

My little growler is an 86 GMC S15. She's survived a full on roll over, and will hopefully be heading to a body shop in the coming months to have her front clip reworked to make at least the front end and cab match once more. Right now she looks like a patch work pick up from the parts I used to put her back together. If I knew how to attach or insert an image I'd show you guys what she looked like when I last went out east.

Before I left my lot-guy job I made sure to snag a steal, $400 later and with now 202k on the clock (put on a fair bit of Kms since I got it)... I don't care for cavaliers much, but the price was perfect and every single power option (including the AC!) work like a dream so I think I got pretty lucky given more stuff we got traded in was totally shit beat and hardly ran.

Had to get a new car this spring the head gasket in my old one blew then had wiring issues so I just got rid of it and got myself a 2013 Ford Fusion Titanium

Nice, I had a look at the Fusions while I was pondering a Focus ST.

[Phyr]

Focus would have been the better choice for gas, it's smaller though. I like the space my 2013 fusion brings also it's all wheel drive which is great for the winter since I am back in Alberta. Took a kia optima for a test drive a lot of options paying for and crappy head space in the back seat. Took a Nissan Altima and the car had wiring issues on the test drive, namely the heated seats and the dash console where acting up. Always test everything you can before buying cars now a days. If possible see if you can take it for the weekend if you really think it's the car you want.

Your G37xS looks nice too. :)

[Drake Wingfire]

I gotta second Phyr on that one. I worked at a used car dealership, we actually got in a lot of current-year models. Rather new cars with like 10-30k on them and there were a good few times that people traded them in because of some fluke or problem with them that they didn't wanna say. It goes without saying older cars are worse for this... You may think that you are getting a totally inspected car thats had badly worn parts replaced and a rather good tuneup... But I saw some of the guys try and sell cars with dead AC claiming it worked.. or even vehicles with known issues like worn out clutches, busted parking brakes etc.

So by all mean test everything you can think of, it will save you from getting fleeced.

Thanks. Alas, gas mileage is not its strong suit, but my commute is pretty short so I'm not too concerned about that. It was a lease return from Regency Infiniti in North Van. Doesn't seem to have any issues. Good way to get a gently-used late-model car.

I'm taking it up to Summerland this coming weekend - going to go up the canyon to Spences Bridge and across on the way up, then take the Hope-Princeton on the way back, so there should be some fun driving in there.

I'm always more than a little suspicious of the little used-car-only dealers. I wouldn't buy something at one of those without taking it in and getting a full inspection.

there is a place out in Richmond called the Vancouver Auto Auction.  any registered dealer (those little used car only) can buy cars from there.  this auction sells cars that the dealer does not want for what ever reason.  this could be why you see a brand new car (example a dodge) in a competing dealers (example a ford) used lot.  there is also a public auto auction open on wednesday nights and saturday mornings.

i bought my nissan pathfinder there for $2000 ($2600 down the road cost, includes sale price, taxes, buyers fee, transfer fee and 3 days insurance) and comparing prices on craigslist i could have sold it for $5995.

sure there are some bad dealers out there so still be careful.  before you buy your next car or if just looking check out   http://www.adesarichmond.ca/

good luck     btw   the auction is not very bus friendly so have a friend with a car go with you so you can get there easily, and you have a ride out if you do not buy something.
