About a week ago my roommate bought a new car to replace her aging car a 2008 nissan altima she replaced it with a beautiful new 2020 Nissan altima 2.5s with 3,500 miles on it and my roommate only paid $15,500 she discovered it was an ex rental car after the dealership showed her the carfax but she’s still happy with her new car she bought from hgreg which is a chain of used car dealerships all around Florida infact you could buy a former rental car and not even know it
Here’s the link to that hgreg dealership

Interesting story @Lauderdalerick ! There is obviously no obligation to inform the buyer in advance that the car to be sold is an ex rental car. To be honest I personally wouldn't buy it.....
Btw, happy Thanksgiving!!!!

On the picture the ex rental car looks great. But nobody knows in detail about damaged parts i.e. suspension etc. due to mishandling of a renter.

I would buy anything but never an ex rental car. I would see too much technical risks due to mishandling. My opinion only.

When I buy an used car the question about the history is of course mandatory.
