I have never bought a car like this before (I drive a Honda now) I am really not sure what to look for. What kinds of problems to expect, how many miles do they normally last etc. I would be purchasing it for $16,000. It has 55K miles. It seems to be in really good shape and it is starmark certified. Anyone have anything good or bad to say about them? Any questions I should be sure to ask the seller?

They are very good looking cars. You should look newer! It may be more expensive but worth it. How long of a warranty is left on the certification (most are only so many years from the original "in service date" which means the date it was originally sold. So, if it certified and only has 6 months left on the warranty it doesn't do you much good,does it?
