Re: 2000 Honda Accord SE Gold 49k Miles
Negative!
Drove 2-hours to go see a car that was not like it was described. OP should take better pictures of the car that shows its imperfections, and describe its actual condition. My expectations were never too high for a vehicle of this age. However, the car has been resprayed on the passenger side and front bumper and possibly the hood. I repeated myself numerous of time to the OP if the paint was all original over the phone before making the trip. He told me it was "all original" and that the driver side fender had some body work (primer), done from the previous owner which I was ok with.
I get there after the long drive to see that it had been resprayed on the passenger side and find a filthy interior. If you see the pictures you can tell that side looks like it's wavy and been sprayed. Even though Carfax doesn't show any accidents I can bet my money it has been involved in one.
OP, be honest next time!

Re: 2000 Honda Accord SE Gold 49k Miles
Never did I say it was garaged, clean, or whatever the case. Plain and simple. The car has 49k ORIGNAL miles. ALL ORIGINAL body parts, engine and transmission. I said the paint was ORIGINAL. I then said it had prior paintwork on the passenger rear door from what I know. The hood could have painted at some point. As well as the bumper. The car is not a garaged car. It was outside. The car is 16 years old. Mechanically, the car is in perfect shape. Body wise it's not perfect. It has dings and scratches. And the interior being filthy? Come on now, its not filthy. It's not a new car. The interior is actually in great shape. I'm being as honest as I can from what I know about the car. Never have I had issues about selling or buying anything, EVER, on forums, eBay, or outside of the internet.

Man you are full of it!
You said it had been repainted from the passenger side when I was pointing it out in person. So you saying you mentioned it is bs! You never mentioned it before I headed out there after I repeatedly asked "IS IT THE ORIGINAL PAINT"!? I was ok with the dings, scuffs on the bumper, and drive side fender. Why? Simply because you had mentioned it. But when you I get on th phone and you to tell me other then that everything else is ok and it really isn't then I'm calling bs on that.
Also, when you tell me that "it might have been in a minor accident but sometimes it doesn't get reported on the auto reports" what does that make me think? It has most likely been in a accident but you won't admitt it.

Anyways, whoever gets this car will be lucky, dings and scratches and all. The car feels and drives like it only has 49K miles.

Re: 2000 Honda Accord SE Gold 49k Miles
To the kid complaining....welcome to the world of buying used cars. I look at an average of 10 cars before I find the right one. If I went online and complained about each one hondatech would be 90% threads about me complaining and then 10% car stuff. You looked at a car, it wasnt what you thought it was, you passed, end of story now gtfo.

Re: 2000 Honda Accord SE Gold 49k Miles
Post updated with more pics as I've just taken today. It is exactly how the car looks when I go outside and how you will see it upon arrival. Car is very dirty at the moment. The first set of pics are right after I detailed it with a Clay bar, Polish, and then Wax. The person that seen has deterred people from coming to see it because people think there is something wrong with the car. THERE IS NOTHING WRONG WITH THE CAR. It's all cosmetic. It has no issues with the car.

I see corrected pictures and descriptions... buyers do your due diligence and make informed decisions.
