If your serious about buying this car, maybe ask to take it to another place for a very thorough used car inspection. Because that prices is quite low.

Quebec cars are always cheaper.

Also, look at where you're buying from... they're one of those places that closes their doors for 1 day then reopens with a new name.

If you really want THAT car, then take it to a BMW dealership for a full inspection. It'll be well worth the money to do so.

[black13]

Definitely get an inspection done on that. Seems way too cheap and BMW repairs will cost you an arm and a leg.

It does seem very cheap - despite the fact that Quebec cars are always cheaper than out here in the west.

Just get a good independant inspection, and good luck with your purchase. I was not even remotely close to being so lucky to having a luxury car that is only 6 years old for my first car.

My first car was a rusting 74 Ford Maverick! :)

I don't understand why everyone is giving this kid such a hard time. He lives in Quebec, if you couldn't tell by clicking his link in his original post.

Cars are always cheaper in Quebec, do a search on Canada trader and you will see for yourself. Before you commit it is a very good idea to take it to a BMW dealership like everybody suggested though. If it is going to be your first car, you don't want to buy something that is going to need repairing right away. Esspecially on a car like this. If it checks out, go for it and jump on a good deal.

You should also know that dealerships do their own inspections before they put their cars for sale so that their aware of potential problems on trade ins. Whether they decide to show you this report is up to them. I would ask for their own inspection before anything else, if they refuse then that could be an indication that it may need some work.

I am dying to know if that car checks out as the price is great, especially in comparison to the Vancouver market

Hey! I just asked my boss what he thinks about this car (he owned quite a few BMWs) and he says I shouldn't get it because :

1. 18" wheels are going to reduce the suspension efficacity by quite a lot
2. Not a Xi... I live in Charlevoix which is basicly made of mountains ; there are slopes everywhere and he thinks a propulsion car's going to be a pain in the ass... especially during winter.

What do you guys think?

[adidas]

That ur boss doesnt know what hes talking about!

Your suspension will be okay, sure it will die much sooner then say if u had 16s on there but its not like ull need to change ur suspension every summer!

FWD/RWD/AWD it all depends on how u drive and if u know what ur doing! I highly doubt ur gonna have a problem driving ur vehicle in the winter time no matter what! U just gotta know what ur doing and u can save urself some money by not gettin a Xi

If you know how to drive and have good winters on the car you should be fine.

I am from Quebec and understand everything you are talking about including living in Charlevoix (Massif de la petite riviere st francois ftw!) and why the price is lower.

With that said anearly 10 year old car in Quebec usually has rust on it and they are hard to wrench on because all the bolts are rusted , seized and break when you try to turn them.

I would honestly save a bit and buy something newer. It will probably come with traction control if it's a RWD and will work better in the winter.

If you still buy the 99 get some sandbags in the back!

Il serait peut etre aussi plus facile de poser ces questions sur un forum local comme quebec street racing ou quelque chose comme ca. Les gens ici ne connaissent pas tres bien le quebec, les routes et les conditions hivernales!

[zain123]

its his first car
so am guesing he doesnt know how to drive..

look for a xi

[Xtrema]

Isn't it Quebec's law to equip to winters on every car now?

BTW, I have a huge Deja Vu moment like this thread is a year old, yet it's not.

I would definitely pick a newer car, even it means it won't be a BMW.

[Smooth-Op]

Yeah I guess that's about right ;)


I finally decided to wait until I find a good deal on a XI...

I'm not to picky. It has to be in the 99-03 range, 323,325,328 or 330 will do ; it just have to be a good deal.

[Smooth-Op]

Hi!

Yeah it's me again still looking for the perfect car.

Here's the one I'm considering right now :

http://www.lespac.com/search/detail.php?PHPSESSID=e89af71524777925c5ef14d5e55ccd66&infst=RK_8122377%3B&cp=0&region=&num_reg_ori=17&gr=12&majalerte=&a=8122377&o=%2Fsearch%2Findex.php&r=1424&liste_ville=&listcmp=&parindex=0&page=4&total=123905&nbrpages=15489&visite_recherche=&categorie_titre=&idcookie=892e2824b48c642eb6464de5e357bbf7&zc=0&zg=12&priorite=&orderby=distance&mots=&distancemax=0&agemax=0&liste_region=&catgr=C0-12&prix_de=0&prix_a=15000&annee_de=0&annee_a=0&type=0&etat=0&no_region_de=0&no_region_a=&no_region=&prio=

It's basicly an automatic '05 VOLVO S40 Turbo with 5 cylinders, leather, 98 000 km for 14k $.

I really don't know much about Volvo... let alone a S40.

Can you tell me your opinion on it? Does is seems like a nice deal? What are the pros and cons of owning this car?

Thanks!! :thumbsup:

[TomcoPDR]

I hate the turbo lag on these :thumbsdow But pretty zippy cars.

[96integra]

I've driven them and all I can say is that they're pretty damn quick. Interior/dash is nothing too special. Good price for mileage though.

[Smooth-Op]

Thanks but I'd like more opinions.

So... bump!

[Smooth-Op]

I really can't make up my mind right now on what car to get...

Here are my 2 options right now :

A '03 Infinity G35 Sedan with 131k KM for 12900 CAD$ with 2 sets of wheels and tires (summer + winter) :

Or a '05 Volvo S40 T5 (Turbo) with 99k KM for 13 995 CAD$ :

Wich one looks like a better deal / which one would you pick?

[jibber]

If I was looking for a good all-rounder, I'd pick the G35. Does everything well. But then I might be a bit biased as I own a Maxima.

The Volvo would be my pick as a project car.. you could make a great sleeper out of the Volvo ;)

As for value for money, your two choices are pretty equal IMO, which is why I'd choose the Infiniti if it were my money.

[Redlyne_mr2]

wow so cheap in the US

[ICEBERG]

The links don't work for me?

[Transp0rt3r]

I'd pick S40 - so much torque ! I span the wheels on AT with this little turbo :D Very nice, compact and safe car. I think you can find 2004 S40 for as little as US 9 000 in Oregon .

I'd pick the G35 all day. Though MUCH improved, I still am not too keen on Volvo styling. Especially in their interiors.

[HP2133]

Get it inspected and Good luck with your buy . Low ball them and try to get an even better price

Can't tell form the pictures, but is it similar to the european model

Have you not looked at the Canadian dollar lately? It would have to be one hell of a deal to make it worth importing right now. By the time you head down there, bring it back and do all your safeties; it's not worth it.

[HP2133]

Even on even parity and Canadian Pricing, we got screwed by locals

Volvo has a better interior but G35 is more sporty and reliable.

G35 would be better.

[403ep3]

Damn french site lol.

I say the g35 but the link doesn't work.

Ford has let Volvo go to shit much like GM with Saab. Reliability is only average, parts are expensive and the lineup is pretty uninspiring. I would take it over the high mileage Nissan though.

[rony_espana]

theres an 03 G35 at repo.com for 13,900, its got 108k.

139k doesn't seem high for an 03? my Dad has had tow G35's and both were rock solid reliable.
G35 interior is nicer and will be more reliable.

A '05 Volvo S40 Turbo T5 98k KM for 14k CAD $.

Now I need advices on what I should ask the dealer about the car. And what do you think is my price negotiation margin considering I'm willing to pay the car cash.

[max_boost]

If you put a deposit down, make sure you have it in writing and make sure it states whether it is refundable and subject to any conditions.

Offer them $9K (Beyond styles) and go from there.

9k$? I've never done that b4 but are you sure that's enough even as a first offer?

[colsankey]

He's pulling your chain on the $9k... its classic for beyonders to tire kick and offer a retardedly low-ball number.

[jdmSiR]

Haha dont offer 9k, they will look and you and tell you they are wasting your time.
i definetly agree you put a deposit down after you have worked out a reasonable sum to pay, then also make sure it states whether it the down deposit is refunable or not, i believe that Thaco uploaded a bill of sale that is kicking around the marketplace section under cars and such.

[max_boost]

Haha alright, offer a bit more. Maybe $10,500 or something.

More importantly do you know the history of the car? Carfax? Carproof etc. Whether it's been maintained and been in any major accidents etc. The thing with older cars, try to find out if it needs any maintenance, brakes, tires, suspension etc. so a thorough inspection is also warranted. If everything comes out clean, ask the dealership to detail it too.

[max_boost]

Oh yeah, take it for a test drive. LOL

[Smooth-Op]

Originally posted by max_boost

Yep I'll be doing that tomorrow. But something tells me I'm going to be in love with it :P

BTW, the car comes with a 3 months / 5000 km warranty for free. Is that usual?

[Isaiah]

They probably offer an 'extended warranty' so find out what the terms are and whether you want to go with it. I don't know about Volvos specifically but I would recommend checking a Volvo specific forum to find out what the most common problems are for that model and year to find out any specific problems that they are prone to and as max_boost said, make sure you get a carfax.

[Xtrema]

It's a 05, so you many have a bit of powertrain warranty left.

As for the 3 month/5k warranty, sounds like 3rd party or something that dealer use to promo it. Check the terms. Better than nothing but mostly useless.

Test drive the car and give them CBB price as a starting point in the bargaining. They may got this from auction and may profit even at CBB. Doesn't hurt to ask.

Set your mind to READY to WALK AWAY. If you seem too eager, they smell it and probably won't budge.

[Destinova403]

make sure you get everything in writing... put lots of conditions on the sale... its your right... if you put a deposit and put some conditions on it include things like "positive carproof" and stuff

and remember that EVERYTHING the salesman says means nothing if it isnt in writing... so get everything in writing

enjoy the new ride :)

step 1: check prices of similar cars
step 2: go check it out, test drive and maybe an inspection
step 3: work out a price
step 4: leave deposit with terms and conditions
step 5: run carfax/car proof/ whatever else

Ok cool. But just to make sure I get this right (I'm french). Once I get there, I test drive the car and agree on a price, note the VIN, leave a deposit on it (as a security to make he won't be selling it to anyone else in the meantime?) then go back home to run CarFax and Car Proof?

Should I run both? Wich option should I use for Car Proof?

Also, where can I find the CBB price?

Thanks!

[Smooth-Op]

Hey guys.

I'm kinda disapointed... Just called the dealership to see if the car was still available and to take an appointment to test drive it etc. but the dealer told me a customer just took it out to another garage for a complete verification.

If the guy takes it I'll be disapointed... and if not it'll mean the car has problems and that won't be much better...

Sounds kinda dumb of the dealer to tell me about it cause if it's still available this afternoon you can be sure I'll negociate the hell out of it.

A '04 SAAB 9-3 with 76K km for 12k. Does that sounds like a good deal? Do you think it's a good car? I don't know much about SAAB ; does it have a good reputation? etc.

Thanks!

[Afrodeziak]

Seems like a decent deal, although I know nothign about SAABs, just comparing to what I paid for my car.

Then again, cars out east are a lot cheaper than in Alberta as well.

I'd look into seeing if the title is a rebuild and if there's been any damage. Look at the car from all angles, in perfect day light. Look under the wheel wells, door frames, etc for any clearcoat buildup/drip from any possible re-paint

A790... any thoughts??

I have driven my roomates and really enjoyed it! I hear that they can potentially be full of problems down the road. Hence the $50k car being only $10k. So far only minor issues with my roomie's car.

Unreliable cars with poor resale value and scarce parts. I like the 9-3 but it's just too problematic for someone whose looking for his first car.

Totally agree, hell even for a third car a SAAB is going to be a poor car. I like them, just would not own one.

[RY213]

You can get unreal fuel consumption out of a SAAB though...

Yeah very true. My bud had a SAAB, he saved a ton on fuel.......mostly due to the fact I was driving him around while he waited for some Swede to carve a part for him. Great interiors, smart designers.....just wish GM had not bought SAAB.....sent me running to the door.

[A790]

My Saab has been pretty good to me. It's an eastern car. The only real issue with my car is the coil pack for cylinder two went. Otherwise, she's never let me down. Starts right up in this cold weather, runs fine, get's wicked gas mileage, looks good, handles well, and is loaded with creature comforts.

Would I buy one again? Sure, wouldn't think twice about it. Though I wish it had a bit more balls...

No worries, I'm getting used to this. Even though this forum has quite it's share of trolls, I find most people very helpful.

The link doesnt lead to anything for me. Weren't you deciding between two other cars just recently? What happened with that?

One was a '04 328i for 13k but I was told it was propulsion and that it's major shit in winter (especially in Quebec). Then there was this '05 Volvo S40 Turbo for 14k but it got bought the day I called to test drive it. So here I am now.

Fixed the link but it only works for ~2h at a time.

"it's" is a contraction of "it is", I believe you were after "its"

Haha! I'm having a deja-vu feeling right here.

I'm french dude. Once you've learned to speak 3 languages you can make fun of my english.

BTW : I don't really know the exact meaning of the word "prick" but I don't believe it applies to somebody who makes grammar mistakes. Correcting other ppl's ortograph and calling them names for no reason on the other hand...
