You know the old saying . . . if it sounds too good to be true . . . then it probably is. Do you know anything about the title status or any specific info regarding the car's history?

I purchased my '01 for $11,000; it was listed for $12,600 but it had twice the mileage of yours so it obviously sounds like a great buy if it's a non-salvage vehicle.

I'd go for it in a heartbeat if it is what it seems to be. I'd deffinitly dig deep before working out any deal. Atleast get the VIN and run a carfax before driving the three hours out there.
