Need some advice and fast! (used sl purchase)

Well I've been gone for a while since trading my max in on a dodge ram but the truck is gone and now I may be back...VERY soon. lol

I'm looking at an 07 Maxma SL w/24k on it. Fully loaded with everything but Nav. Test drove her tonite and feel in love. Feels like alot of the 04 quirks are gone but I need to know if there is anything that I should be looking for? Anything that should be done to it before I buy etc? At a goin price of 18,990 I really can't go wrong here. Also the car has a clean carfax, no accident and one owner.

also the original price was 20,990 and due to knowing who I know, I got him down 2k and also throwing in a 5year 75k bumper to bumper warranty for $1200.

Just lookin for some serious advice. Thanks in advance and hope to see you guys soon!

you're the only one that can test drive it. nothing comes to mind as to what to look for. so unless you read something in a previous thread, then go for it.

For $18990 go for it. I paid $23500 and could have gotten lower had i know i could have, but who does?? But than again mine only has 11.5K miles on it. I actually like the CVT and you should be happy, nissan I think pretty much worked out all the quirks the 04-06s had. Good luck.

the only thing i would do different is try to get him to give me the 7yr 100k warranty and if not i would save the $1200 and not get the 5yr 75k warranty because you got 3yr 36k still on the car and the 5yr 60k. so i would buy the car and if you have a lot of issues during the rest of the 3yr 36k period then i would buy a warranty when the factory one is close to being up, but i haven't heard of many issues with 07-08's so good luck

Make an offer of 18 out the door with the warrenty included. Dealer pays taxes lic etc.
Before you buy it, park it in sun and walk around just to make sure nothing was painted. not all the accidents get reported to carfax! Just dont pay the lic/registration. Let the dealer take care of that. But i have an 08 and i love it. Go for it buddy and have a good luck!

The price is a steal, particularly for a 2007. Take it and run if you like the car and it checks out!
