02' rsx-s for ~$8000 a good deal?
My friends girlfriend has a 02' rsx-s w/ around ~80000mi that she doesn't want anymore. She said she would sell it to me as a favor for around $8000.
The bad things are...
1. it has 80000mi
2.she hasn't taken the best care of it
(hardly ever washed, probably never waxed, infrequent oil changes)
3. driven for 4 years by a girl (small scratches, few small dings)

why not just IDB her and take her car for free?? wtf kind of shady girlfriend is that? Having to buy a car off her while being her "boyfriend"? Kinda makes me uneasy.
haha..where I come from, we IDB that **** and we get what we want.

oops.
well.... IDB her anyways!
but yea..uhh $8000 is a very nice price of a RSX-S. You know how they say "always find a car thats been driven by a girl" ? Because tehy drive it less harsher?
well i think thats bullshit. seeing how I know women...they dont' take care of their cars, they don't do oil changes, wash it, they ignore Check Engine lights.... and ****... i don't see how a car is in any better condition than a car that's been driven harsh to the ground. Atleast a real man would probably do frequent oil changesa and pay attention to noises coming from the car.

Re: (giff74)
Just buy it. If you bought a used car from a dealer you have no idea how it was taken care of. Just because you know that it was treated with the best of care does not mean there is damage. I would get a compression test.
My G/f does nothing for her car. She gets mad when I check her oil because she is always in a hurry. I swear her saturn is the most reliable car I have ever seen. The way it is treated and has yet to have a single problem. Except the sunroof motor.

Re: 02' rsx-s for ~$8000 a good deal? (wfocrx)
think of it this way..... Even if you're not gonna drive the car, JUST BUY IT ANYWAYS!!
You'd make so much more than $8000 parting the car out.........
engine + tranny $ 4000
seats $ 1000
ECU $ 200
Sound $ 200
5 lug swap $ 1000
wheels and tires $ 400
headlights $ 150
steering wheel with airbag $ 300
misc interior parts (carpet,dash +++ ) $ 700
misc exterior parts (hood, fenders, bumpers, side mirrors) $1500
misc motors (wiper F+R, auto windows etc.) $300
alternator $ 400
everything else I haven't mentioned $ 2000
these are very rougly estimated prices ... I'm pretty sure you could make more...

Stereotypes generally hold true. While you are right that they are not 100% correct but the chances are great. Most women do not treat their car very well.
