That doesn't count any other small nagging things. You should've taken the $12,500 offer and considered yourself lucky. I sure wouldn't buy a car with these issues that haven't been addressed. I do appreciate your transparency though.

Thank you very much for your comment. I did care for the car. However that pretty long list of repairs is something I could not afford, "long" being an ambiguous term in this case from my perspective. Not sure how that makes the vehicle not operational. Also the price quote for the repairs was from a Honda dealership. Pretty sure everyone knows it is very expensive to have repairs performed at a dealership versus a local mechanic etc. Any DIY person with enough skill and knowledge could purchase a used rear axle and install it easily. Same for the power windows, and not waste the $3k in repairs.

yeah id say you should've taken the 12.5k offer , all those repairs plus says wheels are bent, has an accident, needs paint, valve cover bolt stripped also? im local to you and pretty sure you had a brand new valve cover in box for sale? i think this is a 8-9k car honestly
