Look at the car yourself and decide. Going in knowing what things cost can also help when your deciding what to pay.

I narrow it down to people who appear professional and well-written. Saying they know what's been done to it and have all the documentation helps. Maybe it sounds elitist, but I'll skip the ads written by people who have problems with English. 9 times out of 10 it's some 19-yr old punk who abused the car. I also avoid ads that only have a 1 line description, with tiny low-res photos. That just forces me to ask more questions about what kind of options it has, etc. And then when they reply I have to try and match up their email with the right car. Sometimes you can't, because the link to the ad isn't in their email.
