wow im glad I test drove this RSX I looked at today for more than a few mins

So long story short email the dude, ask strait up if theres anything wrong with it and he said nope I wouldn't waste your time its mechanically perfect, so I was like alright, go to Burnaby and he takes me for a test drive but something seemed off about him.. I asked how long he had it for and he said 2 years.... then I test drive it and instantly notice the syncro from 3rd to 4th is completely done.. clunks / grinds hard unless you double clutch.

He was asking 7900 for the car and other than the trans the car seemed fine for the most part... So I obviously tell him the transmission has the issue and he acts all shocked saying wow that's the first time its done that, it never happened with me driving it ever, and im thinking wtf lol what the hell are the chances of that? so anyways I just politely decline buying the car and leave

When i got home I noticed he removed the CL ad and then I stumbled across this ad on kijiji (below) he clearly bought and is trying to flip and leave someone else with the trans issue which is a big $$ fix. but was completely acting like there wasn't anything wrong with the trans

2002 Acura RSX Type S Coupe (2 door) | cars & trucks | Abbotsford | Kijiji

So beware guys.. he got the fender and bumper fixed and taillights are stock now but the trans is done and still has the exhaust leak, he told me its not been in any accidents either.. Theres nothing wrong with buying and flipping vehicles but don't bullshit and waste peoples time.. ffs.. I hate car shopping on craigslist lol
