Should I purchase a car that has been in a collusion?

Question

I thinking about buying a car that has been in a collusion. It's a 2008 Toyota Camry LE. It has a light front body damage. The car is going for 11,000. Here is the site were the car is located. The actual retail price is MSRP $24,300.00

Any advice, is it worth it, how much would it cost to repair it?

Answer 1

I'd be very leary of this. If you can, get a Carfax report so you can see just how serious the accident was. That is a heck of a markdown for some "light front end damage."

Answer 2

If the frame is bent, the car is totally worthless. I wouldn't buy it.

Answer 3

Check on the status of the title.  If it's coming with a branded salvage title, keep looking.

Answer 4

i have browse the site the car is pretty ugly without the sport rim

it worth it for that price but if u like sport rim u gonna spent about 2k . the front body damage and the headlight will cost about $700

Answer 5

A car which has faced a collision or an impact is less likely to sustain another so the general advice wud be 2 go for some other car.

Answer 6

I can tell you from experience that once a car is in an accident it is NEVER the same NEVER, no matter how much you spend to fix it just wont be the same...i would never recommend a car that has been in an accident..plus your lookin at an 08 so your probably going to keep it for a while...honestly dont do it..i know its a deal and seems great but trust me you will start finding little **** here and there that is wrong and you will just start regreting it..trust me form experience DO NOT buy a car that has been in a accident..resist all urgers I dont care what price or car never do it...you will eventually regret i promise you.....plus ask yourself this...why did someone sell an 08 unless its totally f**cked..think about it why didn't they just fix it if it wasnt anything big?
