Yes, you should go back.<br><br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Mon, Feb 22, 2010 at 9:10 PM, Jille Eikenberry <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:agent.hosen@gmail.com">agent.hosen@gmail.com</a>></span> wrote:<br><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;">
So, thanks for all your advice... I did go and check it out. It seemed in great shape and ran really well. I came *this* close to buying it, got the cash out and everything, but pressed him about the motorcycle registration. He had a story about it that didn't seem to add up, and so in the end I was uneasy about buying it and walked away. Basically, it *was* an auto plate on it, and the registration title said "Automobile." Yet, HE said it was registered as a motorcycle and that was just a mix-up. He went on to say that at the auctioneer, they registered it as a motorcycle, and when he registered with the DMV they registered it as a motorcycle and said he needed "special plates," but sent him a regular one anyway...Yeah...something like that. Seemed like there was some holes he left in the story and the last thing I wanted was to throw down $2500 only to come back, have to register it as an auto, and then have it fail a smog test and then be stuck with a vehicle I can't use.<br>
<br>I think I did the right thing....something just didn't smell right. <br><br>Was this being too cautious? Should I go back???<div><div></div><div class="h5"><br><br><br><br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Mon, Feb 22, 2010 at 10:45 AM, Mike Aisenfeld <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:maisenfeld@yahoo.com" target="_blank">maisenfeld@yahoo.com</a>></span> wrote:<br>

I have a 97 with about 40K mi on it. It looks like it has an auto plate on it vs the motorcycle plate, though. The motorcycle reg has been the most complicated thing for me. I'd double check that he has a valid motorcycle title for it. If not, its a good negotiating point. <br>

<p>Go there, drive it, if it seems good, grab it FAST. Offer 2500 but 2750 is fine too. It is the right deal. Go now. Don't wait or it will be gone. They don't come up too often.</p>

What's odd about the ad is he goes through a list of features of Interceptors but doesn't comment on the mechanical condition of the one he's selling. To me that means either he's beating around the bush, or its in such great shape that he isn't even aware of the fact that there might be issues with a vehicle from that era. I'd call him and ask him about the transmission, engine, and any weird electrical issues like the headlight turning off when you hit the brakes. <br>
