assure getting a car that Ididnt medically have to dump money into for repairs. I ended up buying a 2nd $200key be uase only 1 was included. Also, I couldnr drive the car for over 7 days after I got it bc there was no temp tag delivered with it. The car needed a front end alignment when I finally drove it...another $300. I still don't have the plates and tags 6 weeks after the purchase.

Bought a car that was previously owned by a dealership
employee and has been sold by the dealership multiple times throughout it's life. The front lower control arm nut fell off completely in my driveway
employee and has been sold by the dealership multiple times throughout it's life. The front lower control arm nut fell off completely in my driveway in less then 500 miles since purchase. The battery had been replaced while in possession of the dealership, and they have evidence of ordering, and receiving a battery for it but no record of installing it. The battery failed within 1 month of purchase which according to manufacturer occurred due to their failure to follow procedure during installation and they have been a nightmare to contact about service records or anything they're willing to do to help me since my $19,000 purchase has already broken down 2 times in less then 1 month since purchase, and both things were repairs that happened during their possession of the vehicle. Very shady experience. I have been in the automotive repair industry for 10+ years and would never avoid standing behind the things I sell like this.
