buying a car from Ontario Fine Cars. Opinions

[forzamilan]

hi guys, i could really use your help on this one. I live in Vancouver, but I'm going to be buying a car from Torono to save money. Im 99% ready to buy a Jetta VR6 from Ontario Fine Cars in TO. Has anyone ever purchased a car from these guys? They want 400$ to inspect the car, but I really would rather pay a mechanic in toronto 100$ or whatever to go there and check it out for me. If someone could help me out it would be much appreciated.

I think that you are just asking for trouble. Buying a car from a distance is a bad idea. Besides, they will have to charge you freight. I would look around locally, and not even consider this.

Freight is only around 500$. I'm saving around 4000$-5000$ by buying it in Toronto instead of Vancouver.

If the difference is that big, I smell there is something fishy.

Go fly down there when there's a JetsGo promotion and drive it back Though, that'll be crazy mileage and suck a lot of gas up hehe. It might be fun though driving your new car in snow 3500 km.

One thing I don't get is why people would buy the jetta vr6? Isn't it like 37.5K? For that price you could easily get a volvo s40 T5, subaru legacy gt, tsx, or (god forbid) a c230 coupe.

Surely the volvo, subaru, and tsx are superior cars to the problematic jetta and the tsx even costs less.

Just my two cents.

son im paying around 12 grand for the car. If I was spending 40 grand I would buy a Volvo 100%

ok "dad". I didn't know you were buying a used car. I think this is the part where I'm supposed to say "my bad".

A used vr6 is fine. A new one... well... is a wee bit expensive in my books.
