That car would have made it from North Carolina to California and back to North Carolina without out any issues. I sold it to save money for a truck when I got back from my 2014 deployment. I wish I still had the car to this day.
I don't know about the hail damage. The guy that bought it from me drove it from NC to his home in Maryland. I sold it and was in good shape. The guy was on here when he had the car. Look through my post history to find his username.
FYI, $12k is way too much for the car. I would offer $8k because I sold it in 2014 for $7,800.
