I have to agree with Bill about the photos. There's a low-mileage convertible being advertised now that looks stunning online... picture perfect, sitting in front of some lush majestic scenic view. You have to be extremely observant to notice that one photo has a cloud of white smoke coming out of the tailpipe; that another shows a coolant resevoir with no fluid; and that the terms of sale mention "sold as-is". WHAM -- you have just paid a large sum for a good looking car that has a blown head gasket and will need a major engine overhaul in 500 mi. (or less)! Be wary... some folks have no shame. Its always wiser to get a third party mechanical inspection to give you the real story.
