Hi ~

I am buying a car off craigslist. I was wondering if anyone knows a good mechanic to do a quick inspection of the car to let me know if there are any problems. Its a Laguna Blue S2000 2006... I checked it out but would still like to have a mechanic put it up on the hoist and do an x-point inspection and tell me that the car is still 'new' with no accidents.

thanks,
Rob

unless you know a mechanic or someone who does, a dealership is a good option.

i saw it posted on craigslist monday night, i was there wednesday afternoon to pick it up!

that was after searching for a good s2k deal for ~3 months though.. i really wanted a white or black one, but of course.. ended up with silverstone

I have a very good mechanic in Campbell if you live around this area. PM me if you need the name and address.
Also ask Joey....he may do inspections too.

Can ppl post their mechanics? I'm located in Sunnyvale Mountainview area. So Campbell isn't too far, and I don't know where Joey is.

Yea, I found mine very quick and decided not to do an inspection because I the car has only 22k miles and just had its service done and I trusted the guy. Well I ended up bringing it to my mechanic a little later for an oil change and he says he thinks that it was in a minor accident because a couple body panels(i think fender and something else) were missing the VIN tags, so I learned my lesson to always bring it to a mechanic before buying, even though I ran a carfax and it came up clean(those don't seem to help much)
