I test drove it on Saturday & it runs great, especially for having 109k on it. It has the 3.4L which I've heard should get it atleast 30 MPG. Some of the small issues are the A/C only works on the high & it pulls to the right just a bit. Also, I noticed it doesnt have overdrive, is that odd? Also the car has some rust showing through around the bottom of the car in a few areas & a couple spots on one of the doors. My b/f, who is a mechanic told me the rust isnt a huge issue, but it is reason enough for them to come down on the price. Right now they want $5995, but they are good friends & have done business with my Dad, so awhile back they did mention I would get his "discount". We did tell them about the A/C, but I thought I'd wait till I got financing to mention that it was pulling to right a bit & also mention the rust (like they dont already know!) and see if I could offer maybe $4500 & my Ford Taurus as trade in, which would only be worth maybe $300. Would this be a fair?

  1. I guess you should also check insurance quotes for the car before buying one, for example here: http://autoinsurance.noneto.com

    As I remember Impala is expensive to insure.


  2. leave it on the lot to many miles and it sounds like there are to many things wrong with it.
