I need to get a general consensus of buying a used 240SX (97-98) that has a lease and commercial registration on the carfax reports. It was never privately owned, meaning that it was driven for as a business car and as a lease car. It has mileage over 100k, but it's a manual and it's in my favorite color. there are about 10 pics of the car and then look good.

Should I even look into it? or is it as bad a buying a car with a rental registration record? thanks!

edit: argh...did an edmunds appraisal and didn't expect it to be so low, but it came out in the range of $6500....I guess I'll just pass this up. Too much money....

That is a ridiculous price for a (minimum) five-year-old 240 with that kind of mileage. Pass on it...the seller is obviously insane.

thanks for the confirmation....I've been losing focus on how much to spend since I'm getting very tired of looking for 240s...
