Remember informed buyer. A flashlight and a trip under the car will be more beneficial than anything you can find online. My truck has been in a minor front end collision and and a rear end collision I didnt find until I owned the truck and found the over spray marks on the roof during the first coat of polishing compound.
I found rear main leak and valve cover leaks that I made the buyer give me a discount for. Easy fixes if your handy, but i got a quote to fix them from a shop and said Id buy the car minues the repair bill. Leaned the price out $1100.
I found the front frame nose was crunched in and the bumper mount fell off my bumper when i put on my body lift. No big deal, but WTF? wish my seller would have coughed up that little gem.
Moral of the story. Flash light and a floor roller, under the truck. Watch the paint texture at the seams. If its noticibly off, you know she's seen some action. The repair work will speak for itself, good work is good work.
A repair isn't the end of the world, its when you find cracks and noticeably shoddy repairs that you walk away.
Your not buying a camry, t4r's are sought out by gear heads like us, so a lot of DIY repair work modifications are to be expected. Dont buy that little old lady took it the grocery store and church story.
