I have a family member that bought a '99 EX V6 new and has done all the required maintenence with 105K miles. It's had some transmission work done at about 60K (which I understand is a weak point with this model) and is overall a solid car with no accidents. I can get it for under loan value, so it's a good deal. What should I be checking out on the car for before I decide to buy? I'm looking to drive it maybe another 50-60k miles.

 

If you go to Edmunds.com, there is a list of 10 items to check on purchase of a used car. You can use this as a guide.Check through the maintenance work done on the car, then view to see if there are any paint color difference in the sunlight, in the wheel well, under the hood for any structure warpped or bent, or repaired. Drive the car hard by yourself to see if there are any unusual noise/rattles hard braking to check for steering pull.Honda's are good cars, should last you a long time. Enjoy
