Would you...?

Would you buy a car that has been in 3 accidents? On the report it says two of the accidents were with an object, (tree, and embankment) and the other was with a vehicle. All 3 of them were in New York, so I'm guessing they were minor fender benders. But if you look at the car you can't tell it was in one. So would you buy a car like that?

Here are some pictures of the body. No damage at all, no rust anywhere on the car either

I wouldnt pay 3000 but for the right price I would definitely, It looks like there is some overspray on the rear tail light, passenger side, could be a glare though

Got it for $2,400 including them delivering it to my house so I dont have to drive 3 hours back to them to pick it up. 91,580 miles. I thought it was a good deal.

Definitely overspray...makes you wonder what other corners they cut if they were too lazy to remove the taillights while painting. It's not like removing them takes 4 hours.
