Private party sales are usually "AS IS" without saying...UNLESS you said you'd give him a warranty. If not then i dont mean to sound like a car dealer but you have no reason to return the money and take your car back.

Technically, every used car needs some type of repair. weather the owner knows it or not. and why the hell didnt the buyer inspect it prior to purchasing the car?????

I have a '97 with about 16,500 miles. I have the car inspected about every two months at a local dealership. They put it up on the rack and give it a once over while I watch. They haven't ever charged me for that. But an older Box can build up a repair bill quickly. For example, mine could use the newer roof transmission cables and connectors, $1700+, RMS replaced (hasn't leaked in two weeks) $1350, Airbag light fix $750 (Harnesses and seatbelt connectors). Just replaced a coolant hose $257. The car was PPI'd and sold to me "as is" with no warranty. You just have to learn to live with some of these items. The car looks as new and is near perfect cosmetically. Someone buying an older Boxster should have researched the potential for repairs and acted accordingly. I don't think the seller in this instance has any responsibility to the buyer.
