I've heard different opinions on cars with minor accidents on the carfax. Some say you get a great deal, some are the opposite. You just have to do your homework and make a decision. Once you decide, go with it and don't back.

I almost bought a 2016 535 before I got my CPO 540. It would've been almost zero note payment and my thought was I'd enjoy it for a couple years and if I liked it, buy a new/newer BMW. It only had 50k miles on it and was clean. Had fun on a 24 hour test drive. I kept asking questions and kept asking. And they were great and answered everything. Finally I talked to the tech that inspected it when it came it. Guess what… it had to have the engine replaced after it was traded. Had thrown a rod and they found out after the trade. Part of me thought "hey! No car note, fun car, and brand new engine!" But the more conservative part won out. I just couldn't take a flyer on a car that had the engine replaced at 50k miles. What else had been ragged out on it? No telling. No regrets passing on it, I think I got the right car for me in the end. More expensive but newer with CPO coverage and plenty of miles to go.

My point in that story is don't be afraid to ask every question under the sun when something seems off, like sitting 5 months in this market and moving lots. You may uncover a hell of a deal or you may uncover information that makes you walk. Either way, I'd say ask questions and be patient and don't get invested in the car until you're satisfied.

Good luck!

I wonder if they'll let me talk to the tech that did the used car inspection on it

Absolutely. Why not?

I mentioned earlier...I would not buy an accident car. Take your time, buy a car with no stories.
