Hello.
I've recently just purchased a 1997 Acura Integra Coupe. I payed $2700 CAD for it at an auction. At first I thought I received an amazing deal on the car due to the low odometer reading of 140k. At least 140k KM was what it described on paper. After I won the auction on the car, I took it out of the lot only to find out that this was made for Americans, and had 140k Miles. By the way, I live in Canada(for those who did not catch the "CAD").
The body is in pretty good condition, a few minor scratches (nothing too major). If I got it for cheaper, I wouldn't feel this agitated (I am a cheap bastard). Also seems to run fine.
I was very displeased and now I'm wondering if I got a good deal, decent deal, or I just got ripped off?
Also, it is registered in my province.
A second opinion would give some reassurance. Thanks.
PS. There was a viewing time during the auction but the cars were parked extremely close together and I could not look into the car. And due to unfortunate circumstances, I was somewhere else during the time of the auction and had someone stand in and bid on the car for me. If I saw the car was in miles, I would not have bought it unless it went under $2000.
