My mom's friend is a mechanic and his selling this car that he fixed up for $3500. He is very reliable on cars since my mom bought a car off of him. He said he fixed everything, etc and everything is working properly. he said he wants me to have it for "cheap" since we are very close.

2001 Honda Accord Coup. dark silver with sun roof. almost 200,000 miles. strong transmission, etc.

I AM NOT A CAR PERSON, that is why im asking you guys if i should buy it. so what do you guys think??

That's a LOT of miles, if that's the original tranny + engine. I'd ask if either has been rebuilt / replaced.

Even then, 3500 is a lot for a 12 year old Accord, imo. I'd try to talk him down to around 2500. cuz I'm cheap. :P

Jesus, I wouldn't even pay that much for 200,000KM, let alone miles...
Honestly, I'd never buy a car with more than 100,000mi on it unless its a super old piece of crap you get for $200
