Would you not buy this car (2012 Camry XLE) because of body damage?
#15
I would definitely take a close look and do an extensive test drive. Honestly, getting a prepurchase inspection at 122k is probably going to scare you. At that price, if it's okay now i would drive it until the wheels fall off. The car fax notes two accidents with light damage, but one covers three sides of the car. This kind of damage is "spinout on the snow and kissed some guardrails". CarFax also indicates a lot of tire swaps at about 6000 mile intervals, so likely snow tire swaps. If Connecticut is a salt state, check carefully for rust on the bottom of the car as well as body panels. At one point Toyota was great at corrosion...then they were not starting about 2003 or so.
