Well, I thought that I had made a deal for my new 914. Was supposed to pick it up sometime this week.
I talked with the seller yesterday and he said that it did not pass an emissions test, so he is taking it to his mechanic to see if he can get it to pass. He also tells me that he may be having second thoughts about selling the car and if his mechanic cannot get it to pass, he may (probably) choose not to sell it (IMG:style_emoticons/default/mad.gif) |

In Colorado, the seller is legally responsible for providing emissions certification of the vehicle being sold. Even if the seller is a private party. I am 100% certain of that BTW. I'm sure that's why Jon is trying to get it certified before selling. Check for yourself, it's the law. Many times in a private sale the buyer is left to emission the vehicle. But in those cases the buyer would have recourse against the seller if the car did not pass. He may be having second thoughts as well, but let's wait until this is all said and done before you pass judgement on Jon.
