Hi there, new member here.
I found a 2007 Accord with 206,000 miles, automatic i-4. This is going to be my 16 year old sister's first car.
Here's a picture of the Ad.
I already saw the car in person last week and it seemed pretty clean, it had the Check Engine light and the ABS light on. I had him get the check engine light fixed and he brought it to the honda dealer, I guess it had an exhaust leak. So they fixed it and reset the light, he said he drove it 50 miles and it hasn't come back on. I have a OBD2 tester that I will hook up to it to make sure that's the case. I've already test drove it. It runs, shifts, and stops nice. The oil, transmission and coolant look good. I did forget to check the brake fluid (doh!) so maybe that's why the ABS light is on, either way you can pass inspection with the light on. I know one of the rotors is a little scratched, but that's an easy cheap fix that I can do. And tires are probably decent enough to pass inspection.
Overall it's a clean car and I'm excited to pick it up for her today. I guess this post is mainly an introduction since I'm sure I will post here again when looking for help with the car (If I need it!) also I have a little car knowledge I can probably help others with.
If there's any last minute things I should check today before getting the car that's recommend then please let me know or if you feel like I am not getting a good deal, etc. I know the car is below KBB value and I already looked at it and it seems like a legit car.
