2001 Sonata - need opinion

Hi,

My neighbor is selling his 2001 Sonata for $9000 Canadian. The car is in
very good shape in and out.
I really like the style of this car. I don't know how reliable this car is.
If you have owned this car or currently owning it or have any opinion about
it, I'll be greatly appreciated if you could tell me what you know about
this car.

Thanks,
Steven

 

I have owned a 2000 Sonata (4CYL) and it was a very reliable car. I
understand that the V-6 was not as much so. I gave it to my son. I now have
a 2004 V-6 Gls. You don't say what model, but that's pretty high even for a
cherry. You can pick one up for $5-6000 USD.

Don't do it! Not because of the car but because of who you are buying
it from. Never do buisness where money is involved with friends,
family and/or neighbors. Why? Let's say that he/she sold you the car
thinking it was in good runing order than when you take ownership the
car had a major component go bad all of a sudden. Than naturaly you
yourself would assume that she/he knew that he/she was selling you a
bad car. Trying to sell a problem to somebody else. Than what?

The truth is you have to live next to your neighbor. You have no
choice. If your relationship goes bad there is no avoiding your
neighbor at all.

Buy a car from somebody else or through a company.
