Ok so sitting in my driveway is a 2002 Hyundai Accent, I am in the process of debating buying it or not.

The starter seems to drag when the car is warm, acts as a dead battery however once it sits for a minute it starts fine, question just a bad starter???? This will make or break the deal..

 

Could also be a dragging main or connecting rod bearing. I'd have a trusted mechanic inspect the car, and more specifically this problem before I would buy the car.

 

Never thought of that as there is no bearing/Rod noise, but still possible huh...??
