Just something to think about - I know a lot of people scrimp and save to make the down payment, but don't think about the other costs that come into play during ownership.

Thanks for the input! As I mentioned before, I am almost finished with college and do have some extra cash + a job to pay for any maintance work. I have already stated that I will only look at the G, if he drops the price down to 22k. The car has been on the ads for bout 3+ weeks now, so it isn't too much sought after at all in my perspective. The paint chip is near the sideskirts which is about the size of a quarter... the mile is high... and it doesn't have nav/and aero kit... which i can live without... but i reallly wanted the aero (i can always get Nismo

). Anyways, i'll update again. Thanks for all the info!

I will not penny pinch, but i'm just a lil worried spending this much money on a car with a decent amount of miles...

I think the value of the car is arond 21-22k... but who knows... on the market, its a little bit diverse, but speaking as an average... it might be worth around 23-24k...
