dude.... take it for a spin and judge for yourself man. only you can make the call considering what your plans are with the car (daily driver vs track), your impressions on the test drive, seeing it in person, etc.

WTF?


Anyways....I wouldn't let the judgement of strangers determine if you are spending $12K or not. (Assuming you are paying for it, not the parents)

If you don't know enough on how to research a used car to determine it for yourself, then why spend this much on it? Without taking the time to run it on KBB, i'd imagine that's under bluebook, what should that tell you?

There are websites (KBB, Carfax) and mechanics who will give it a once over. What are we gonna tell you from looking at a couple pictures? All i can tell is that's a hell of a gap between the front of the hood and the bumper, and the fender and rear bumper lines don't match up. I'm gonna leave it at that.

Also, why are you posting this in the new owners section??

My 2 cents.

Welcome to the hornets nest. Now seriously. It looks ok in the pics. But pics can hide a lot. Best advice, are any of your mates major car freaks and know what they are talking about, if so, take them with you to look at the car. Bumpers on our cars paint doesn't match perfectly, so that isn't necessarily indicative that it's been in a ding. Other than that, take a few for a blat. Buy the one that feels the most solid mechanically, and looks good under the hood, like it's been well cared for, and has all it's panels as they should be.

Good luck my friend.
