I owned mine since new . most reliable car i have owned.
only did oil changes in its life time.

just changed the original brakes last year.

imo - needs a 6th gear.. 100kms is over 4000 RPM

My family is looking to buy this exact same year and model with similar mileage (45k kms) for $16k taxes in on a end-of-lease buyout.

I know nothing about these models... Are we getting a decent deal?

^ have you guys ever driven one?

Go drive an Evo car GLA or CLA and see if you still want to buy. Honestly I don’t know why anyone would ever opt to buy any of these lower end mercs, what an incredibly uncomfortable, cheap feeling line of vehicles.

Like, just look at that back seat, god willing you don’t have to sit back there for more than an hour

I CAN NOT comprehend how the CLA costs what it does. It feels like a mk6 Jetta with 200k on it.

Exactly the advice I wanted. This car will end up being someone's first car, but I think I'll actually recommend them a Corolla

So clean, too bad auto. Still a great buy at $2900 in that condition.

Nothing a b18c5 swap and manual conversion can't fix. Throw on a winks mirror, a slew of stickers, get some poke on those wheels and sand the hood down for rust and it will fit right in with the rest of the integras.

wot?
