It was bought from gm off lease. Driven by an elderly gentlemanMe personally, why did someone trade the LT in already? Does it have issues that the person just decided to dump the car? I would say keep your Eco. If there is nothing wrong with your car, why inherit someone else's problem? Just save the 60 dollars a month as a backup fund in case you would have to fix your car, buy tires, etc. That's what I would do.
I have 5 years of payments leftI probably won't do that deal, but honestly you didn't provide enough information. How many payments do you have left on Eco? How many would you have at $60 more for same year car. Yikes that's a horrible deal.
just spend $500 and make the modest repairs to your ECO
That may mean you owe more than your Eco is currently worth?I have 5 years of payments left
I hope you got to meet him. As in it was a deal within your social circle.It was bought from gm off lease. Driven by an elderly gentleman
Yes sir, I'm upside down. I didn't make a great decision in purchasing it from that dealer. I also put a lot of kms on which doesnt help.That may mean you owe more than you Eco is currently worth?
It takes two to tango - so it wasn't all your fault. Sounds like the salesman asked you: "How much can you afford to pay?" and you answered him.Yes sir, I'm upside down. I didn't make a great decision in purchasing it from that dealer. I also put a lot of kms on which doesnt help.
I did not get to meet him but the salesman is one of my good buddies.I hope you got to meet him. As in it was a deal within your social circle. Otherwise it could be a sales strategy on the behalf of an unscrupulous or starving salesman.
That's how we learn. By making mistakes.Definitely a learning experience that's for sure.
I do not know that. How can I find out?Normally if I spend more, I want more warranty to protect myself from large repair costs. The proposed car has almost no miles which is positive but out of warranty soon and still a lot of payments. Do you know the in service date of both cars? Some of the LT manual transmission cars sat on the lot for a long time, even though the same model year you may be getting more warranty.
ask the salesperson or go to the service department with the vin. Just as a learning lesson, all warranty for any used car you buy is based upon the original in service date, or when it was sold new to first owner. You always want to know those dates, that car bumper to bumper is done. 3/36k. Sorry I don't know that in kilometer. 5 years 100k miles on drive train. Would also show up on a car fax for each carI do not know that. How can I find out?
Will do, thanks for the advice.ask the salesperson or go to the service department with the vin.
