NO. If you have to ask this question, then it's not worth buying. You don't want to have someone's headache.

Apparently either not well repaired, or not well maintained. I would keep looking...

Give George a call at www.luxuryautoexchange.com and tell hi Michael V told you to call him. He is The largest wholesaler in the Midwest and can get you a cherry car for a great price. Look at my sig to see the equipment I have bought from him. The 540 and the 545 were purchased sight in seen because I trust him that much. He ca sip the car any where in the US. Good luck

These cars are not cheap to fix problems and issues. Get one with a warranty. If you go cheap and buy one with issues, you will end up spending more trying to fix the issues that comes with the damaged car.
