I would call and ask them if it has been wrecked. That is def. a price of a car that has issues. the question is what issues and how bad are they. if they say no it hasn't been wrecked then run don't walk away. Don't mention the carfax just ask the question.

Loan on the car is around 15,000. I'd pay 16,500 or so. If the car has been totaled or has a rebuild title then it's worth $8000. Lots of car get hit and fenders replaced .... No biggie. If it has a bad or rebuild title is would still look at it for $8000 or so if it drives right.

In front of you!
Who owned the car when it was wrecked? If it was the person who is selling it, ask them if it has been wrecked. If they lie and say no, then I wouldn't buy. But if they say yes, inquire about what was damaged, and what was replaced. Then personally inspect those items, or if you don't feel comfortable in knowing what to look for, ask someone who you trust to..

Damage was done in 2007 a couple owners back. The dealer said it was probably something minner like bumper or something. He said bad ones say airbag deployed or frame damage. But that could be a salesman talking.
