I know people on this forum swear by Craigslist to find deals on used imports,but I'm telling you Kijiji sometimes offer some goldmines. I hate the Kijiji layout and their user interface is crummy but I find a lot more value finds.
I was so close to buying a flawless 5-sp 2001 Prelude SE with less than 50km. Full authentic Mugen bodykit including rare exhaust. Advan Kreuzer V's (Could sell these alone for the price he wanted for car) Could tell from the pictures the owner babied the car, the leather seats looked new. Phoned the owner and said a guy put down deposit to buy it. I don't know how long the ad was up but it wasn't more than 1hr. Tried to offer him a bit more to see if he would sell to me instead, no go :(
Guess some people still rely on principles and not swayed by more money. I've used this tactic before buying used items on classifieds ads and it works 90% of the time.
The price $3500
dammit, would have made a perfect cheap beater for the winter. Not going to lie kinda salty right now...
