i use to sell cars, i could help u out. if i left something out, somone else can pick up the slack. anyways..inspect the car..top to bottom. idk if ur going thru a dealership or private seller, dont get distracted by what the owner or salesman is telling u. check all buttons, hinges, windows,and gadgets work. open everything. if there is a scratch or dent, ask what happned there. look at all the glass. check the tires to see for tire tread. look under the hood, check the oil ask how often the maintance was done. when u drive the car, have the radio shut off, cus u shouldve already checked it when u were pressing buttons. take it on the freeway with the AC on fullblast. if something dont seem right..ak whats wrong with it. when ur done with ur test drive, ask this (if going thru private seller) IF YOU WERE TO KEEP THIS CAR, WHAT WOULD BE THE FIRST EXPENSIVE REPAIR YOU WOULD DO? oh..dont think just cus u go thru a dealership that the car will be in the best condition. ive seen cars in lots with broken glass, HUGE scratches. last piece of advice..do ur research. check other cars, lookup prices on kelly blue book (
