Default Help with some info... buying an s2k soon

Well i found the car that i always wanted and for the price that i can afford also. It is an 04 and has about 27k on it and the price is set below blue book. Im a lil iffy about it since im not sure why he is selling it way under blue book, his excuse is he is moving soon and needs to sell. Well im going to go look at it this weekend. What are the things that i should definetly look at when i get there besides the basic things.

^^^ Agree 100%. Its a cheap safety net. Have them run a CarFax too (they'll do it if they really want to sell it to ya).

What is he asking just out of curiosity. Thats fairly high mileage for a 2004.

ok so i picked up the car anyways, i got it for 21,500. I had a carfax done and everything was clean, nothing reported on the carfax at all. Because it is high mileage i will be on the safe side and bring it to my honda dealer just to take a look at it. Its the silverstone color with the two tone red/black interior. The car to me is great, except for the high mileage, but im not really worried about it since i believe i got a really good deal on it. What do you guyz think of the price i got it for?

good price, get it checked out to be safe esp before your warranty expires. when you go there, say you are buying this car. if you tell them you bought it, they may not tell you if something was wrong to save them trouble.
