You would be crazy to even consider this car. Stop now and do not even think about this car for a moment longer. If there was something in particular you liked about this car, such as color, tranny choice, mileage, then try www.cars.com and use that to perform a search in your area. I used that this past week to find my new 'used' Saab. There are tons of cars out there without questionable histories. Although sometimes 'mileage rollbacks' can be 'flase' e.g. an insepction station records a car's miles at 61K when it actually has 60,580 and then another official entry chronolgically (occuring very soon after) records the exact miles e.g. 60,700 then that might cause a 'false' rollback report. But that's rare - a VW jetta I bought 6 years ago had a 40K mile rollback (I only discovered that a couple weeks ago when I subsribed to CarFax for my current car search). The car was nothing but problems. If someone was slimy enough to roll back the vehicle, you don't know what else they did. Good Luck "Kourtney L.
