Question: questions to ask when buying a car from craigslist?
Answer: Assume that the person selling the car is a con artist (unless it's a licensed dealer). ...  Meet the seller at a public place and bring a friend. ...  Ask why they're selling, and ask for records. ...  Insist on a test drive, but get ID, registration, and proof of insurance first. ...  Know what the car is worth (as best you can).
