So I bought a 96 240SX SE from an auto dealer, Insiders Auto in hoodbridge, a couple of weeks ago. He said the car had never been in a wreck, but there were a couple of things that seemed weird to me. He then gave a verbal agreement (mistake #1) that if I found that it had been wrecked that he would take it back for a full refund. So I took it to my mechanic, he said it had been in a pretty bad rear end accident. Both the rear bearings were bad, the rear diff was leaking slightly, and the suspension chamber (stock) was really outa whack. So I went to take it back to him, and he said he would pay for all repairs (mistake #2). Hes had the car for like 2 1/2 weeks now. He keeps saying he's waiting on the rear wheel bearing/hub assembly. So finally today I called my mechanic, my mechanic called his parts supplier, and his parts supplier said he could deliver it in 30 minutes. :mad: So im really ****in feed up with this ****. Im trying to get ahold of him now to tell him if the car is not ready tonight when I get there, im going to report it stolen as there is no verification where the car is at.

:::::UPDATE:::::

I e-mailed 96240inNOVA to find out what ever happened in this situation. He didn't report the car stolen. He said that the total cost of the repairs was $800 but the dealer would only pay $300 so 96240inNOVA had to make up the difference.

Now he is worried about the fact that his parents bought it for him and when they did he never received a bill of sale. He is not sure whether or not he'll be able to register it.

Sorry it's not good news, but I figured you guys wanted to know as well as I did what happened.

Thanks Nick. I'd be the biggest PITA that scumbag dealer has ever had the displeasure of dealing with.

I'd get my five bills back. One way or another.
