Buying Lexus involved in accidentneedadvice 08-07-2004, 12:50 AM Hi everyone...... i very badly need some advice on the following matter. I have no experience in purchasing cars. Is it advisable to buy a car that has been met with an accident. I saw this this lexus car at a dealer. Details : Lexus ES 300 1996 mileage = 99000 black color , leather seats This car was involved in an accident and the dealer basically repaired it. Now it looks brand new with no problems at all. The following things were damaged : 1) Hood 2) Fendor 3) Radiator 4) Condensor The dealer basically replaced it with new parts and repaired the body damage. I test drove the car and it looks in perfect condition. He is asking for : $4000.00 Is it worth buying a car that was involved in an accident. Any advice would really be appreciated. Thanks Need Advice ishop4less 08-07-2004, 07:05 PM Well...if the car does not have a salvage title and you have test drove that car seems to be good why not then?, make sure check the engine, and transmission as well. At $4000 it is too good to be true for that year. needadvice 08-08-2004, 06:25 AM well it does have a salvage title............ ishop4less 08-08-2004, 11:55 AM Well...If I were you I will not touch salvage title. Why the insurance does not want to fix it for the first place? that kind mileage and condition should be around $7K-$8K in the market and now dealer try to sell half price? But all is up to you, how safe do you want to have a car, check the airbag cause the air bag itself cost $2500. masterillusi0n 06-25-2005, 06:12 PM anyone selling an ac compressor? vBulletin®, Copyright ©2009, Jelsoft Enterprises Ltd.
