I intend to buy this car:

>capitolhyundai.net/used/Nissan/2005-Nissan-Altima-Montgomery-583968330a0e0ae97a1697c49bbc6b08.htm

The reason I can't go with private party is that I don't have time to inspect and smog it. Given the situation is the above car good for my situation? I only need something reliable to get from point A to B.

>don't have time to inspect and smog it
wtf does this even mean? why don't you have time? if you're buying a shitty nissan for 4k you can't be that busy.

don't have time to run around for repair parts just in case the car I buy from craigslist doesnt pass inspection. Don't have time to buy a meter to read the check engine lights before I buy it for every single car.

Are you the BMW guy from yesterday?

If so, you truly have shit taste in cars.

Lmao, yeah. Somebody told me I was being vain with the BMW. Now, don't tell me Nissan is for hippies too

No, nissans are for niggers. They're built shittily.

Get this instead.

huntsville.craigslist.org/cto/d/1999-volkswagen-tdi-jetta/6282107267.html

What do people find in these atrocious mid-2000s post Renault Nissans?

I genuinely cannot understand. Get a Taurus or a Camry or something.

Christ man, just buy one of the better bluetooth scan tools, they cost around 100$ and can pick most error codes as well as read CELs, just plug it in and have it record everything while you take it for a test drive, tell the guy you'll be back with an offer and look it over.

To be fair, car selection is pretty shit. I've been perusing the local craigslist and it's all shitty cars or scams.

(i'm not op)

Nissan isn't for hippies, it's for fucking idiots. There's a reason why they're so cheap. Literally anything would be better.

Like I said in the previous thread, just buy a fucking Civic.

I can't get a good civic on craigslist in the bay area. I tried searching a lot. The only trusted options are the official honda showrooms that sell used civics but they are too costly.

look harder.

Too many miles on them. Ill have this caar for 3 more years. Cant buy something wiht 150k + miles

Yes you can. Mileage doesn't matter. How it was maintained is much more important.

Alright. Thanks. How does this one look btw:

A little skeptical about the dealer but seems decent enough since I figure it will pass the smog and inspection guaranteed.

NO. Never buy a shitbox from a dealer. Especially when said shitbox has shitty aftermarket wheels.

Wouldn't it be better than buying from a private party though?

NO. Dealers are out to make as much profit as possible by any means necessary. They probably paid 500 bucks for that car. Do you really want to give some scumbag that much profit? Most private parties will be fairly honest and just want the car gone. Ideally they'll have maintenance records in a folder.

What about this one? it is a franchise dealer, not your regular run of the mill dealer

It's still a dealer, so no. it's too expensive, has a shitty tiny job and it's automatic.

I'd hop on that maxima. it's from a time before nissan went to shit.
