I'm looking at purchasing a car in CA...
Smog inspections must be done prior to completion of the sale and at the sellers expense according to the title instructions. The car is in the Bay area and I am in the LA area, I was planning on flying up to inspect the car following a prepurchase inspection by a good shop. The guy swears the car is "one of the tightest 911sc's he's ever seen." My question: Is it too much to expect that the seller have this smog inspection done before I get there? He's going to ahve to do it anyway and it's good for 90 days if I don't buy the car. If it doesn't pass (which it has never failed) He'll have to get things right before he can sell it anyway. Too much or not? Thanks buds The Mikester |

I just got off the phone with him and he says I misunderstood him and that he never had any intention of getting the smog done before I got there.
So - I said "I think we're done here." I thanked him for his time and I apologized for wasting it and I explained to him that I never had any intention of coming up there without a completed and passed smog inspection and I told him that from the start. So, we're done and I'm going to look for a different car. Thanks anyway. Thanks for the input too fellas - always good to have a few more opinions on policy. |
