FRS from Vroom - RISKY?
 
After being carless for 3 months, I am thirsty for an FRS.

I found this one on VROOM , an online dealer like carvana. Strongly considering buying this within the next couple of days.

How do you guys feel about this? Should I ? Does the car look good to you?
*CARFAX SAYS 1 OWNER*

Leave Opinions. Thanks!!!

Doesn't even seem like a deal, and its automatic....find better.

Car looks OK from the pictures.

The price is no great deal.

At least it doesn't have a bad throw out bearing - ;)

My coworker bought his '17 V8 mustang with a PP from Vroom.
Zero issues. Everything that was pictured was accurate.
Only thing the car was originally from Texas so here in California it had to be smoged and had to be done by my coworker on his own time. So that's a heads up if your in a smog rec. state.

Thing again my coworker sold it for '18 brand spanking new Civic SI. So yeah....

Nope 110% soild mustang with under 35k on the clock.
He's always been a Honda fan boy, and the local Honda dealership give him a great deal on the trade in. Like he got a good chunk profit from the deal.
But still....he gave up a Performance Package Mustang for a SI Civic. Not even a Type R..

Everyone at work give him shit to this day.

Also you do need to give a $500 deposit to get things rolling. That can either be refunded or put into the loan. Which ever you prefer

LOL And again it is "Don't buy that used car". Apparently the only good ones are the ones sold by members. All the rest are crap.
If you like the price and all looks good just buy the damn things. Waiting for a "better" one based upon the opinions of people here means you may never buy any.

My sons car came from Vroom. Was low mileage. Our only problem was his car is so low that Vroom could not get it on their normal truck to deliver. Important to note that the car we bought is much lower than stock. They called me and explained the issue thoroughly and then contracted a truck that could deliver. Total delay was less than one day. I bought the car and it was in my driveway 3 days later including the delay. During the purchase process I asked the salesperson for more pics. They walked outside and sent them to me while we were on the phone with me.

I’d not hesitate to buy from them again.

Car looks ok, i notice it looks to have the original tires so you might want to budget for a new set

mrg666 10-18-2018 06:08 PM

Looks good to me. So I just bought it. Sorry!

mrg666 10-18-2018 06:16 PM

I didn't buy it :)


Now that you know what you feel about it. You can decide better.
