Here is a list.

1.) Listen for the tick on the drivers side head.
2.) Take it for a ride and check to see if it has the vibe.
3.) Check to see if any TSB were done. ( Gas Pedal, Ect... )
4.) Ask why he is selling it.
5.) Any mods done or previously done.
6.) Tell him to check out and join HPS and pass it along..:2thumbs:

That's the major things I can think of. Just use your better judgment when looking at the car. Check to see if all the body panel line up, ect...Some car accidents are not reported to CarFax if the owner fixes it of if the cost it low.
