But if you are buying for a daily driver, it really depends on what the damage was and whether the price is right, IMHO.
The car otherwise looked really nice. I was really looking into keeping the car like for a long time, with low miles like it has (103K), it would certainly be around for a very long time. What would be the most that I should offer the guy? I would have paid around $5K if the title didn't have a totalled brand on it.
