On the test drive, make sure you take the car onto the highway and give her a good rip up to 100 km/h if you can.

Check the top to see if there are any rips or tears. Ask the owner if the top has been changed as the MY00 cars have the plastic rear windows that usually go cloudy and crack over time. The one in the pics look clear still. | |

I agree, it will most likely turn into a bidding war, someone will probably just throw 11.5k at him and tell him they'll take it as is (not saying anything is wrong with it).

But didn't tell anyone he did that. We were all pissed and told him to gtfo

Did seller encourage you bring deposit? That's a shady area for a bunch of people with cash in their pockets to meet up at if you ask me. Don't want to seem paranoid, but felt compelled to share my opinion.

Dunno.
TBH, I am 99% sure it's going to turn into a bidding war, and I am not prepared to go over 11.5K. So no real point in going other than to look at his car in some parking lot. I assume the guys with cash will be able to test drive it, while the other people wait?

Multiple offer situation. Crazy. I'm not sure about the group showing thing though.
The seller could tell everyone they are not viewing offers until a specific day and time.
