2002 172k miles minimum rust. Should I buy?

2002, 172k miles, minimal fame rust, rear locker. Waiting on maintenance records (apparently dude has 5-6 years worth) but all fluids looked fresh. Interior is super clean.

Some quirks like the rear driver side door doesn’t open. Dim radio lights, fog lights don’t work. Some minor body damage.

Asking 13k. Going to try to talk him down especially for the door.

What do you all think?

Also I have no problem working on cars.

 

HOLY CRAP
$13,000 for a semi beat up 2002 ??
No sir, that is a $6,500 car at best.

I can find you LOTS of newer vehicles with NO rust with the same mileage that are going to be as nice or nicer for much less. Where are you located in the world, about 10 minutes i can find you AT LEAST 35 within 100 miles of you that are 2008-2012 models for $7,500-$12,000 that are CLEAN and similar mileage.
I missed a CRAZY clean 2008 limited a few days ago with 199,000 miles for $7950
Interior was freakin MINT
Exterior was freakin MINT
Old lady listed it and had so many people messaging her she couldnt keep up with it all. She sold it the same afternoon she listed it even though i was begging her to let me come see it before it sold.
Lemme see if the listing it still up . Well i guess after she sold it FB took it down off marketplace.

 

Noted. I should say I live in Colorado where the market for these things is pretty insane.

Where do you live? I’d take a 6500 dollar 3rd gen with good maintenance records at 6500 in a heartbeat lol
