Fastback, thank you for the info! Unfortunately, I can not check when the timing belt, clutch, etc were replaced because I am not buying directly from the owner. This is a Carmax vehicle which needs to go through an inspection. I will get the car through a friend who works for Carmax and therefore the deal will be cheaper/slicker. The total expectable cost after the vehicle gets Carmax certified is ~$2.5k. How honest and good are the Carmax certifications? In other words if they see a possible/raising problem will they note/fix it or will they will perform minimal tweaks so the car can pass state (MD) inspection?
