I didn't get a whole lot of details on the car as the dealer didn't get back to me. From looking at the carfax report on it, it looks like a sitter. The reported mileage of 27,783 was the same in 2003 as it is in 2012 ... that either means the odometer is messed up, or this car wasn't driven for 9 years. Would hate to be the owner of that car ... lots of TLC would be needed to get things up to par again after sitting so long. You're right though - records and history are vitally important. This one has neither, so I think it's a pipe dream that they're going to get the $12.5k they're asking for. But who knows ... someone may come along and plunk it down...stranger things have happened.
