True but that’s not the majority. Anyway you can always buy something cheaper. I would go for something that’s hail damaged or messed up cosmeticly as the price for those will be much lower

… And then spend twice or thrice the buying price fixing random things that break in a car that spends most of its time parked at the mechanic.

Or don’t? I would go for a car with a solid engine.
