This purchase was a last minute thing for me and, I was in need of a good car, at a reasonable price, that was going to last. I purchased a 2000 Honda Civic Si with 99,500 miles on it. Being that I was coming from North Carolina I was not sure how this was going to work out. After calling and speaking with Mike, we made arrangements for me to take a greyhound bus from NC and, Mike even picked me up at the bus station. Then we went to the dealership where my soon to be car was getting worked on. Upon inspection of the service records and the carfax, the timing belt and water pump had not been replaced on this car and, being that I needed to be back in NC for work on Monday, Mike personally made sure that the Honda Dealership got all the parts, and they were delivered the same time I arrived in Pittsburgh. When I got to the dealership, the mechanics had taken the valve cover off (this is necessary to change the timing belt) and, I was able to inspect the inside of the engine. In short, with 99,500 miles this motor was clean with NO SLUDGE and, one could have thought this was a new motor. Well, after seeing the car, Mike offered to pay for a hotel for me so I could get some sleep. I was shocked and pleased by this offer and, I took him up on it. After getting a few hours of sleep, Mike called me and told me the car was ready. After shooting the breeze for a bit, I went to Blooms cigar shop and Primante Brothers sandwich shop. The car runs great and, I have a 90 day 3,500 mile warranty. I'd like to point out here that as an employee in the auto industry, I inspected this car thoroughly and for a car with this amount of miles, there were only minor defects. Nothing major that would affect the drivability or comfort of the car. Overall; whether you are an out of towner or from the burgh, buying a car at Mike T's is a safe bet.
