how are cars from alberta generally speaking? is it the winters that ruin them or...? |
1997 BMW 318is Coupe 5 Speed - Possible deal ? |
Its not exactly cheap, but with old BMW ownership it always makes sense to look for a better example with some maintenance already addressed. That car looks nice, and cared for. Looks like a great way for a young car enthusiast to get started. |

The biggest thing isn't the snow or even the salt, its how fucked the roads are. I seriously thought I was going to rip my fucking subframe off driving through edmonton even in the middle of summer. Expect the suspension life of a car in Alberta to be about 75% or less than it would here. First thing I would do is replace every bushing and shock mount on any used car. |
Looked up the VIN on ICBC and says it's rebuilt, but ad says it's clean... 2006 Acura RSX Type S FWD Coupe |

IIRC, that car was selling for 1/3 that a couple of years ago, plus the auto is a turnoff. |

I find it suspicious that there is a modified jeep and a modified srt4 in the back ground, get he doesn't want to fix the starter on the SHO which would quadruple the value and only take an hour. Suspicious that the problem is much bigger |
Valid point. But if the starter spins on turning of the key, and the engine doesn't turn there is clearly a starter gear or issue with the flywheel which is what it sounds like in the description. If you can jump it down a hill and the car runs fine I wouldn't be afraid. Pulling the trans and putting in a new flywheel probably isn't very much fun for the maximum 2 grand he would get for that car in good running condition. |
