To buy or not to buy
Looking to get you guys' opinion on this car. Im nowhere near it so its not all that practical to test drive it unless im seriously considering buying it.
My initial question is why is it on the cheaper side of the prices of similar aged/mile cars.

The reason that car is cheap because its been wrecked, also the title might not be clean as well

I remember seeing that car for like 30k.... Before knowing about the branded title thing, I saw the rear bumper paint was off as shown in pics as well as the passenger side rear bumper tab it looks to be off and misaligned, also the tail lights have been changed thinking maybe it might've been the previous owner or dealer replacing them with the wrong is250/350 tail lights. I would've checked those for sure upon inspecting the vehicle, however knowing now that it is a branded title at least it's got the nice sunroof delete.

ive learned from an early age, if you are seaking out to buy a certain vehicle and you are looking at first years, lowest price and miles dont matter much to you...then you really can't afford that car. take your time and find the right one.

Yea I posted about that car back in May (Last Year) when I was looking for my F and once I realized it was a salvaged title I moved on. They were asking about 32-33k back then.....been on the market for about 8 months at least!
