What are some red flags to be aware of when buying a used car?

pretty much, moving out of here soon though.

What is this meme?

hey look racism, so edgy.

he look ignorance because culture norms lmao!

Race is a factor, fucking deal with it or fuck off.

>all these stormfag meme answers

Failures you should be aware of are:
>transmission (slipping, grinding)
>leaking coolant (possible overheating)
>leaking oil (gasket failure)
>rods knocking
>creamy oil (coolant in the mix)
>aging time belt (replace or inspect soon)

But it's not a factor, you just have preconceived notions of a stereotype that you learn from your shelter echo chamber.

OP pic related would be the first no go in my opinion.

>TASTEFUL MODS ONLY
>just needs some tlc
>only x problem, everything else is fine
>cheap fix!

You have to go back

Female owned since it means the car was likely never maintained and is 100% stock including same tires and fluids.

Also dirty as fuck interior

The only come back you've got left. Pls go stormfag.

Gee, haven't heard that one before. /pol/ memes are so clever and original. It's like we won't be stuck in 2016 for the next five years.

Not really, take your ShareBlue way of thinking and fuck off, I'm not some kek worshipping retard who doesn't realize Trump's an idiot, but fuck off with your safe space talk, no one wants to hear it outside of your Tumblr circle
This applies to you as well faggot

Hahaha, dude you got btfo, being racist is just close minded stormfagism just stop replying.

>BTFO
I don't think you know what that means
>Not realizing Veeky Forums has always been ironically racist
Seriously, fuck off to whatever shitty site you came from

Lol
>damage control
I- it was i-i-ironic

I'm guessing you weren't old enough to vote in the election this past year.

Jesus, I can't believe I've been responding to fucking Alphonse, especially when he double posts from different devices
Child, I'm older than you

Holy shit dude, I'm probably whiter than you, you're just really easy to get (you)s from.

hey look a cuck, take a wrong turn from r\cars?

>I-I'm n-not underaged. I swear.
Enjoy high school, Redditor.

>Literally responding to posts within a minute of each other
You're not fooling anyone Alphonse

Still posting
Dude Racists are just so stupid it's impossible for them to not reply

Pictures/stickers on the dashboard.
Guaranteed proof that they had a CEL pop up and didn't want to see it anymore so they stuck something over it. That sounds silly but I worked in a shop for almost a few months and we did see that, typically on the women's cars.

>muh raycism!
Do you know where you are? I'll give you a hint, it isn't Plebbit.

No, we have experience with numerous members of said group and can predict an outcome due to experience. If that outcome is not politically correct, then tell said group to stop contributing to negative stereotype.

You are aware that calling someone a nigger online and making generalized claims about an entire race of people are two different things, right? People on Veeky Forums didn't used to actually be this retarded.

Why do you care what claims people make? If they are untrue as you say, then surely you wouldn't care and move on.

having purchased a few cars from craigslist.. this is pretty much accurate.
I would like the the following:
any of the following badges:
Nissan, Ford, Jaguar, Land Rover, Subaru, Chrysler, Jeep, Dodge, BMW, VW, Audi, Inifinti, Acura, Chevrolet, GMC, Cadillac.

I it has any body panels that are slightly off color than the rest of the body

If you don't point out the retards, they will take over and become the majority.

It's already happened.

>FWD
>autotragic

>implying being skeptical of a race of people who are the leaders in crime statistics is retarded

You should look in the mirror before calling anyone stupid m8

Yeah, those big bad racists are going to take over and put the poor blacks back in chains. Just look! This happened only yesterday!

There's a difference between being skeptical and immediately rejecting people based upon their genetic makeup. Don't be an autist.

I don't reject anyone until they open their mouth or post, shit most of the people I work with are black, and aside from one who is outspokenly racist against whites, I have no issues and work well with them

So no, people can be skeptical of races that are known to steal, lie, and act violently until they show their true character

>a woman owned it at any time
>a nigger or Mexican owned it
>any mods
>any accidents
>was ever fleet owned or a rental car
>doesn't have an immaculate carefax with 50k or less miles

>preconceived
Opposite

Please, dear lord, let me be right

The big thing, or the biggest thing is see how the car has been maintained and serviced over the years.

Its pretty obvious and probably the most common advice you'll hear but usually not the thing people buying an occasion really fully check.

Decent toptip for non mechanically inclined people to check the status of a car is to give all the wheels a pretty good wobble and a yank. If there's any play in it its either worn out rubbers or the wheel's bearing that is shot. If the person selling you the car hasn't bothered replacing either you can bet your ass nothing else on the car got fixed.

Service history is completely bunk. Any scumbag could fake an entire book full of maintenance history, and by doing so crank up the price a couple hundreds bucks.

Also, avoid rust like he plague. Check under the boot lining, all corners, wheel wells ect. The way people look for scratches or imperfections in the paint is how you need to look for rust. Check it ALL. Find any? Walk away. Still like the car? Hit the interwebs and look for a rust free one.

>they're this obsessed with me
>grrrr i just know it's you!
i'm dying of laughter over here

But it's true that arabs and blacks treat their cars like shit????????????????????????????????????????????????????????

You seem lost friend :)

>3. You will not post any of the following outside of /b/: Trolls, flames, racism, off-topic replies, uncalled for catchphrases, macro image replies, indecipherable text (example: "lol u tk him 2da bar|?"), anthropomorphic ("furry") or grotesque ("guro") images, post number GETs ("dubs"), or loli/shota pornography

I never called anyone a nigger, it is true if you go on CL and pull up to check the car out and its a black, arab or mexican dude, the car is generally going to have something on the more serious end wrong with it, but in the ad, they claimed, that everything was fine and "nothing was wrong". Now I will admit, I Have bought a bad car from a white person before but generally when I check out cars from white people, they are honest about what is wrong. However I will go ahead and say that of course not all white people are trustworthy and not all people of color are lying and trying to rip you off.

>find a good, cheap car online
>find out previous owner crashed it
yeah fuck
i swear used cars scam you every time

>has image

A Blue Oval.

Hola Reddito!

hola esé

>my dad runs a used car lot
>0% interest on Buy Pay Here deals
>fixes the cars when they break down for no charge until the lean is paid off
>tolerates people going 2-4 weeks without paying as long as they call him and let him know they're having trouble and work out what they're going to do about it

>at least 20% of his customers try to burn him or run off with the car to another state

Used car sales are suffering.

Depends on the state but sometimes that's illegal. Salvage titles are not legal to sell without informing the customer in many states. If that happens to you turn them in.

You must be new here, nigger.

Worst used car dealers in the US are arabs and fuckin' Somalians. They will fuck you over every chance they get. I've been to used car auctions, I've seen the shit they buy. It's garbage and they plan to sell it in pretty much the same state they find it in.

...

my current car, a 1.9 mk4 golf tdi, was bought from a syrian dudes used dealership which primarily sold MB. Besides the right and left ball joint and axle needing to be replaced the engine leaking a little bit of oil, the car is somewhat fine besides some annoying noises. I do believe i was ripped off though but that was my fault for not researching into the car and checking under it when i inspected it.

>a woman owned it at any time

Tfw my car was previously owned by a woman, but she never drove it.

Feels good.. so far

What exactly is she supposed to be doing in that picture?

Removing the oil cap?

All these racists on an anonymous board. No wonder, you're all scared and pussies and won't ever show your faces or names! SAD!

Whoops, didn't even see that engine there

Only get into the used car game if you want to grow to hate both cars and people equally

It's funny, I've been all over the world. Backpacked around 2 dozen countries. Without fail, in every single one of them, there are Arabs and north and east Africans scamming people and tauting/hawking shit. Every single place I've been. Even places like Japan, Prague, Zurich, and Hong Kong, everyone would be white or Asian and the one black person you see is trying to pull you into a seedy strip club or rape bar, or trying to sell you some fucking Nokia flip phone or some shit. Trudging my backpack through Mong Kok after being on the road for 3 months looking like an unshaven degenerate and I have Ethiopian assholes everywhere trying to sell me 3 piece suits every 10 steps. Scamming people is like the only thing they know how to do.

>ever buying a car from a nigger
they took care of africa real well...

>the old Veeky Forums would buy sensitive and complex machinery from niggers
no, nigger. everyone hates you.

Bolt ons are considered mods right?

Yes. Generally speaking, minorities are bad people. Only ignorant wusses deny this so they can look cool in front of their peers.

No, bolt ons are maintenance items. Duh

I know the bitch in the picture doesn't know what the fuck she is doing, but my boner doesn't seem to care.

Are mixed race individuals considered minorities?

It's not that they're minorities, it's that they're the worst of the minorities. The kind of people that will leave their country to go to other richer countries and try to scam them. I feel kinda bad for the hypothetical honest Arabs and Somalians that may or may not exist outside of my head.

For realzies? >:[

Temp tags in the fucking pictures

This

What does that mean?

don't buy cars from niggers or jews

they just bought the car and just want to flip it

>it's a redditor gets butthurt episode

>it's a racist Republican gets btfo episode

...

case and point

I've wondered the same. Is a catback exhaust really a deal breaker?

If it's made of flex pipe yes

>complains about racism
>posts a white girl

>white
>girl

Is this the designated second hand buying thread?
If a dealer is offering me X price for a certified vehicle, how low can I go without making the dealer feel like he's being low-balled? 15% less?

If he wasn't racist he would post a thicc black girl but NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO he was a secret white supremacist and posted a white girl instead. Fuck him. He will not divide us.

Never reply to posts again unless you're contributing to the thread

I would just throw a number out and gauge their reaction. If they take a second to think about it that means it's close to what they would take. If they outright say no then it's too low

>If they take a second to think about it
I'm an autist. How soon is this, like one second from hearing my offer to his reaction? Pls be understanding.

>In Mexico opening your door into the car next to yours, and resting it against it as you hoist your mass, spawn, or goods from your vehicle is common and not considered rude, disrespectful, or vandalism/damaging.

>Acknowledging this and taking it into account when you're with unfamiliar Mexicans is racist!

Prejudice + Discrimination != Racism + Discrimination
It may not feel good to be discriminated against because of a group you're a part of, but that applies well beyond race.
Life isn't about your feelers.
