just want sum advice here about to buy one

Hey just wanted to hear your tips and what to look for. Itsa black rx8 at a ford dealer ship and it already has 80k mles on it. It a 6 speed And i love manuel trans and its an rx8 great lookin and all. But it has an carfax and it was in a accident in illious pardon my spellin. Im currently live in cali and blue book said it should be 8k to buy bit its almost 11k they posted. Just askin what i should lok for in the car cause im more worried about he engine and the damage was left fender. Is it worth it since the insurance and everything would be so high for me since im 20 in all honesty

How bad was the accident? If bluebook is 8k and they want 11k then I don't even see why you are still looking at it, chances of them dropping 3k are very slim. For any rx8 you just need a compression test done before purchasing it and like any other car having a mechanic look it over is not a bad idea either.

$6k with good compression and assuming that it was a touch accident with no major damage. Any more and you're a fool.
