I'm liking this CLS at MB of Fresno.

The car is loaded, I like the colors (you might not) and the price is OK.
If anyone would like to swing by and check it out, I'd appreciate your assessment.

I'm not looking for anyone's approval. Right now I'm 800 miles away and pictures can hide a lot of imperfections. I want to know if it's worth the time to go down and check it out in person. I'm not going to buy any car sight unseen.
I've gotten interested in several cars I've seen on the internet at local dealers, only to be disappointed when I finally see the car in person.

I am in Portland, Oregon and been wanting to buy car from SF-Bay area hoping for less price. Yes I got less price for the car itself, but ...
Now if you must personally inspect the car (which is a good idea for USED car), does the money saving really justifiable?
Here is my thought:
- say you fly to No Cal ($300 rountrip best case),
- cost you a day of your time, then if you like it,
- ship the car (another ~$700 to Portland, maybe more to Seattle) or , go crazy, road trip -> even more $, time & risk
That's $1000 and one day of you time.
Maybe worth it to buy locally at slightly higher price? just my 0.02
