Purchase 07 S model?
As the username says....total newb.
I'm looking at an 07 S Model. $10,800. 90K miles. Very tight steering, no squeaks, rattles. Clean interior.
Motor is strong - accelerates hard (for a $11K car) Its a turbo - which scares me a little, especially a USED turbo.
What should I be looking out for to help me decide if its a good purchase? Is price about right? What about used turbos? Any significant recalls on the 07?
Plan is to take it to a mechanic to check compression across the cylinders, and also oil pressure (to check the bottom end. What I usually do when I buy a used car.
What else am I not thinking of?
And most importantly... do I have to surrender my man card for buying a chick car? j/k
