Default This a good deal??

ok so i was checking autotrader.com for a used 350z and i come across a 2005 "white" anniversary edition for 21k with only 9k miles on it so i did a check in cars.com and i looked up the 2005 AE 350z but it only came in yellow black and silver no white... so are they lying? and should i get it?? i looks super clean 360 view.

dont buy a car just because its an AE...forget about the AE designation the differences are worthless.

Particularly since it was a rental car, pay to have it inspected by a good mechanic before buying.

well if you look at the car fax its only been titled as fleet for about a month...not sure what that means.

perhaps a dealer or somebody with a biz just titled it that way? i guess just find out whos selling it and ask them what the deal is
