Oxidation/rust of engine parts in 2017 Yaris

[jowii]

The undercarriage is ok. There's a list of other maintenance things that seem a little overdue, but manageable. Hertz claims to keep vehicles well maintained, but they don't provide maintenance records (even though their blog on their own site suggests getting maintenance records when buying a rental car) They won't even supply them after you buy the vehicle.

I actually had taken it to the local Toyota dealer who does pre-purchase inspections. So I trust their eyes and experience. They were really helpful and nice to work with. If anybody around here was selling a Yaris with this low of miles for this price, I would've jumped on it. And I was also searching for new ones, but it is incredibly difficult to find baseline models and near impossible to find hatchbacks in new inventory. I'd also like a 5-speed manual...which seems rare to find in the US.

That's great news! So, is there a purchase in the near future?
