Unless you have someone that you know look at the car and completely trust their judgement, I would strongly suggest going to look at it in person. The air fare is pocket change compared to the potential hidden costs when you get the car. Back in 2011, I purchased my current ride from a seller out in New Jersey, and I'm in northern Wisconsin. When I checked into airfare it was nearly $800 for a round trip flight, so I relied on the sellers word and lots of photos that he was willing to send. BIG MISTAKE. The car turned out to be a polished turd that I am certain that I would not have purchased had I seen it in person. I could have bought A LOT of air fare with the $12K+ it took to bring it up to the condition that I thought I had purchased. Never again.
