    Default 07 speed3 for $12 000 ??

    I know its not from the Toronto area, but really 12000$? Pick it up for 11 000$, even with the milage the potential is there! It sucks seeing the value drop so much on the speeds.

    As others have mentioned, I'd be interested in the low suspension and the hitch. Seems like a pretty good price, though.

    Regards,

    The price tempts me to go take a look at it at least...but I think I'd rather wait till I finish my degree and buy a 2010+ CWP speed 3

    Aren't there different regulations about reporting accidents in Quebec? I just found it interesting that he says he has the records for the car before he bought it.. I'd be seriously suspicious that something has happened in the short time since then.. especially since it's Montreal, and was winter (slippery) when he bought it.

    Just check it carefully and pay attn during a detailed test drive if you're serious. If you cant tell that it has been in an accident, even if it was, who cares? Just take your time and be VERY throughout in your investigation.

    Ac, power windows, cruise control, heated mirrors, power locks, 6 cd changer, 7 speaker surround , steering wheel control for volume, 6 speed transmission, hitch with light. Brand new suspension and brakes, brand new Michelin x ice winter tires, brand new summer tires. I have the carfax reportof when I bought it in January, selling the car because I lost my job... Everything runs great.
    It's a plausible explanation, and the neighbourhood he took pics in might be just for scenic effect. Or maybe he's living at his parents. Or something...? >_>

    If you check it out and it seems good, no smoking on cold startup, runs great, carfax looks good (not sure about Quebec reports for carfax).... it might well be a steal at 11 - 12k. Even at 117,000km... if this is a 2007 model, it could have been bought near the start of 2006. That's 5 years he's owned it... 23,400 km a year is not unreasonable.

    IIRC Speed 3's didn't come to the market till the Fall of 2006 and True Red was the only colour available at first so this can't have been bought in 2006. More likely bought sometime in 2007, which make it closer to 30K a year which is just about average to above average for most people.

    Correct, I had the first batch of non red which arrived in March 2007. lets not forget SP33D's trade in at $8,000 -

    The Ottawa/Montreal dealer auction is typically lower than Toronto as well, so your trade in quotes in the area would be lower thus why the average asking prices are lower in the area vs. those here.
