Two (seemingly) good cars for good prices. I'd assume the dealer with the 4S doesn't realize what they have.

im sure you’re right, since the text says the color is black, that pic doesn’t match the description.

Also there's a reported accident on that C4S. Mileage is a bit high.

Forget this one in Houston!
I wouldn’t buy ANYTHING from Houston Direct Auto, no matter how good of a deal it seemed.
They don’t have a very good reputation locally.
If you check their reviews carefully on Facebook you'll see how many complaints they have, and notice the names of the people giving them positive feedback.
Most of the positive feedback is from employees (you can find their names on their company website) and people who live in other countries.
Paid positive reviews?

There is another company in town called Texas Direct Auto, and they're a pretty good place to buy cars from.
HDA is trying to use the TDA reputation to sell cars.
HDA's vehicles are never as good of deals once people look at them.

I am looking for a C4S and found this one. The price seems way too low. Is there anyone in the area that can check it out?

If it was a good buy I'd like to buy it but it just seems to be too good to be true. I'd appreciate any feedback on this one.

16k is a heck of a deal. I didn't see the status of the title in the ad. It may be salvage.

It’s not listed in their website, maybe it sold already, or could be just a “come on” ad.

Well, when it looks to good to be true, it tends to be bad. No way to get a decent C4S for 16K, even with the high mileage. Something has to be wrong. The interior looks in horrible shape. I take this as a good hint as how the rest would look like.

Yeah, I got a couple quick quotes and it was around $1000. The owner of the car in Utah doesn't seem too keen on dealing with someone who isn't local though.
