I've bought a lot of different cars over the years. Collector, muscle, daily driver etc. I have NEVER bought a car from a small dealer, regardless of what brand.

FWIW, my philosophy has been that I want to interview the last owner/driver. All that is lost and you get to talk to the guy with the plaid sport coat.....

Don't get me wrong, it could be a good car. But the odds of a good car landing at the corner lot are slim......just my .02.

What/where else have you looked? Take your time and find a loved & cared for example......
