Guest Rammer Posted July 11, 2008 Share Posted July 11, 2008 I am going to look a an 04 VFR with about 8000 miles in the morning. What would be good things to check out or be aware of? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SEBSPEED Posted July 11, 2008 Share Posted July 11, 2008 Make sure the recall has been done(wiring harness). Other than that, check the usual stuff like tire, fluid, chain, body condition, etc, then work on your price. Good luck!:fing02: Oh, and welcome aboard!

Baileyrock Posted July 11, 2008 Share Posted July 11, 2008 A Deal! :unsure: An 04 with only 8k shouldn't need a thing except tires and an oil change, outside that maybe look for crash damage and make sure the wheel are straight. Don't worry about any recall work being done or not as you can have it done for free if it hasn't been done, so no worries there. Welcome & Good Luck! :fing02: btw current Blackbook retail is $6200 & $6855 for a ABS model. Clean Trade is $4865 & $5400. Shoot for the middle! :laugh: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cool and well if it's at a dealer here's the Fair Trade values too as you figure they gave between the two trade number listed for it. :fing02: Fair Trade $3920/$4350. Auction Wholesale $5100/$5650.
