I hope you did a search on info about this...
But I would buy Private , why have a middle man make money off you , when you can haggle a good price from someone who took care of there FD.

The only advantage to buying from a dealer is that you are likely to get at least SOME sort of basic warranty coverage for at least 30 days. Now granted, it might not cover MUCH, but at least it would be something. Let's face it, there are a lot of people that might trade in a FD that is ready to blow or has coolant O-ring problems or some other potentially expensive problem thinking, "Oh well...it is that guy's problem now!"

Just remember the old saying, 'buyer beware'.

Good luck!

There weren't many available in my area so I took what I could get, which was from a dealer.

It came with a 3 year unlimited km warranty. It's not a complete warranty, but I'm at least partially covered for a rebuild if it comes within 3 years.

I'd definately look at both the options, they both have their pro's and cons. Just make sure no matter where you buy it from, have it checked out by someone who knows what their doing (you if you're qualified).
