Yeah, I am leaning towards a lower price, but I have to run the VIN on carfax and hopefully get Ellis to look at her if I decide to take the plunge........we shall see.

I appreciate all the info from everyone and feel free to keep it coming.

Usually these lots are by-products of auction houses - in Spokane. You might see if they will give you a copy of the carfax report, if they balk tell them about the *real* bird down the road and you are thinking of dumping your money there. $6,700-$6,900 tops.

Its one big game of poker...

I would guess that 99% of the inventory of these places comes from auctions.......but I have seen some decent to nice cars be sold at auction, depending on the dealership........my ex is in the biz.
