Recmendations for Pre Purchase Inspections? I'm planning to buy a 2007-2008 Acura TL Type S and I was planning to just take the car to the Acura dealership for a pre purchase inspection. Is it a good idea to take it to a dealership or should I bring it to an independent shop instead? Most of the cars I'm looking at are around 100,000-150,000kms so I want to make sure I'm buying a clean & well maintained example. I'm not too familiar with which independent shops would be familiar with working/inspecting Acuras? Anyone have any recommendations? |
i took a mazda to a mazda dealer - in fact took it to the same dealer that did the service on it. i asked them specifically to tell me all the services i needed done and how much it'll cost and how long it'll take (as if i was going to do) - they gave me few items to do. who knows the car like the people who built it? |
There’s nothing special about a TL any competent shop can do an inspection |

The other factor to consider is the inconvenience of taking said car to dealer or mech for inspection vs. mobile. |

it's a n/a fwd honda if it shifts goods, doesn't blow blue smoke, you're probably g2g if you really want a peace of mind, the dealer or any shop already mentioned will do just fine |
no hard feelings =D |
Hey guys, So I found a BMW private sale that I'm interested in purchasing. Called one the BMW dealerships, and their pricing for inspection is $430, takes half a day. Is that the ball park range for inspections now a days? |

Edit: Looks like they billed for 4.2 hours too so about half a day. |

Why not go to CG Motorsports especially if its a BMW or other Euro brand. I've done several PPI with them and I think it was in the $200~ range and was satisfied each time. |
Thank you for the suggestions, I'll take a look and make a decision from there |
