Here's a short video series on some tips, tricks and techniques on what to look for in buying a used car.

The series goes through an overall inspection of the exterior, interior, mechanical components, road test, the paperwork and negotiation procedures as well as what to do after you buy your "new" used car.

Part 1: Exterior Inspection

Part 2: Mechanical Inspection

Part 3: Interior Inspection

Part 4: Road Test

Part 5: The Paperwork

Part 6: After You Buy

I hope this helps anyone looking to buy a used car soon.

Fantastic work and a great attention to detail. I found it amusing that you pointed out a lot of the faults in your own car.

Very very impressive, thorough, and professionally done.

Excellent job.

You should try and monetize your effort somehow. Maybe by finding a sponsor.

Very well done Speedkar, very helpful. I'm laughing because in all this time I've only seen your Solara and not your ES!

Thanks, now that I look back at it, the inspection makes my car look much worse than it is, because I pointed out every single over-spray, scratch and clear-coat line. At least it was a good candidate for this video to physically demonstrate the things to look for when inspecting.

Thanks for the feedback, yes it took a month and a half to shoot and edit the video.

Thanks. I'm still working on improving my camerawork, starting with the audio and my narrations. Monetization would be great, but I think I have a long ways to improve before I reach the professionalism and dedication for someone to sponsor me.

Glad it could help. I pretty much bought the Solara as a beater car for me to learn and practice my hands-on skills and to make videos. Honestly for my day to day commuting I prefer the Solara as it drives much better than the ES.
