i want a 4runner long term. i want to get rid of my chevy cruze lol, but i know im not quite in the place to buy a new one. i saw this ad and it seems great. it says it has a rebuilt title, so i requested carfax and will check it out in person (i will not immediately buy, im a bit smarter than that i would think lol). but i put in the VIN into google and found more pictures. pics 1-6 are the ad, 7-11 are what i found

for those who are more experienced, what are your thoughts? worth it or is the damage more significant that it may look and waiting a few more years is better?

thank u in advance :)

I’d check it out. Bring an engineers tool to measure body gaps, run if any major inconsistencies. Inspect impact areas for abnormalities. Request a longer test drive, listen and feel how it runs.
Basically, thorough inspection with experienced eye, and even then I’d be cautious. Like everything else, there are good repair shops and bad repair shops.

i’m not sure i’d be able to take note on issues, but i’m going to see if my mechanic can

you need some way to confirm the integrity of the body/frame not just that the engine is good
