2003 buick Lesabre for 20year old?

[Getripped]

im thinking of getting this car.
its from a gm dealer and its gm certified.

2003 limited edition.
86465km
3.8l v6(gets 30mpg on the highway proven by other users)
i got quoted less than $92month!!!ye im serious

they are asking $12900.

That's probably one of the most reliable cars out there. They wont go for as much money as some sports cars that cost less new because it might not be as popular or in demand but Buicks are generally very relable cars and the 3800 engine is about the best that GM makes. Plenty of power and decent mileage too.
I've got a '96 Regal with the same engine that has been relatively trouble free and is already at 189,000 km. I just changed the original accessory belt and all of the original hoses. Just keep up on the maintenance and it should be a good car.
Offer them a little less than they are asking as "asking" price is just a starting point for negotiating.

Yeah, that's a pretty nice car, but for a young person I wonder if it's TOO nice. Might be better off going with a cheaper older car so you don't have to worry too much about door dings.

The monthly payment cannot be correct. At $92/month if would take almost 12 years to pay the car off assuming no interest. With interest you are looking at a lot longer than 12 years. Something sounds funny.

OP is now permanently banned it seems, so we'll probably never get a response...

I'm assuming, though, that the $92/month was an insurance rate... not a monthly payment.

I wouldn't worry about door dings on a Buick :lol:

I wonder if a Buick is TOO nice for a 20yr old, what must my car be then lol.

Whatevs. This is RFD. You probably pay other people to cut your hair too.

I'm thinking $92 is what insurance costs per month?

12900 for a 03 Buick seems too costy.

Well I'm no hair stylist so yea I do, what does that have to do with anything? lol

I've got an 03 Maxima, and not to sound snobby but I've always thought of it as a car that's worlds better than a Buick LeSabre. That said, I know my car isn't the greatest in the world but I think it's nice for my age. Just trying to make light of Kawai's comment of a Buick being too nice, but he obviously took it the wrong way.

make sure you add some spinning hubcaps

Right, that means we should stick with Civic/Corolla, right? :)

Well, the two cars WERE probably in the same MSRP range back in 2003... :)
