Don't overdo the handwringing about mechanical condition. If the car
is basically clean, if it hasn't been hit and if the interior is in excellent
condition, buy the damn thing before somebody beats you to it.
Mechanical stuff can be addressed in a straightforward manner.
Body and interior condition can't. (This assumes you have an ample
maintenance budget or ample skill and time. If not, this car isn't your
cup of tea anyway. But I guess you've been on the qlist long
enough to know that.)
