    When I bought my Proton in 2012 I would only buy a proton.To me most of the other colors were too generic and I would not purchased them no matter the price. Auto check gives a quality report with 50 photos. It had an entertainment center with a 10 inch screen and back-up camera. Tires were new,optima battery,dark tint and spent its life in FL. I would have paid more if I had to.It turned out in two years I have no problems. The Trans had been re-done at 69k. My wife and I took a train to Ft.Lauderdale and a salesman from Phil Smith Kia picked it up and we drove back home .A perfect experience all the way.

    Bought mine with 69K on the clock. I'm the 4th owner and all previous owners have been forum members and its a CO vehicle since new.

    I'm sitting at 113K now and it's a gem...like has already been said if your VX of choice is higher mileage, but well maintained it should last and last...

    If you were given an opportunity to purchase for 5k USD, will you go for it?
    Pretty sure as of yesterday (july 12) i'm now the new owner of this vehicle. And im absolutely in love with it. Ebony Black, 2001, Black/Grey interior, Grill guard and roof rack
