I remember seeing #39 at my local dealership before I chose another NM model. The subtle differences look great. It's a shame that the one listed on eBay doesn't have the original wheels.

There's not going to be a whole lot you can see with your eyes other than tire tread depth, brake pad depth and obvious paintwork, dings, or scratches. If you can get the service history (it may have even been recorded in the manual) from the dealership and check the carfax, that's about as much information as you can get. Obviously you want to test drive it too. Good luck.

Thanks, I guess im too late to jump on a 40k 08 silver isf with only 21k milage. =( Now I might need to consider the 09 usb isf with 46k milage and asking is 44k.

In CA you're having trouble finding them? Nearly a year ago I had a few ISF options from CarMax to Craigslist to other dealers. At the time there were 3 08's for $41k or less, all with around 40-60k miles on them.

its not hard to find them it just that they listed the price super high. I used edmund, crag, and autotrader all the same isf.

I agree its difficult to find a decently priced on in CA but if your dad's going to be paying for it at least find him the best deal so you don't blow his cash. It's tough but maybe wait for even private party because they can be much more reasonably priced.

Oh, gotcha. Yeah, I noticed either "cheap" ISF's around $40k and then the price jumped to $48k or higher with little in-between.
