Guys I was looking at a Caddy 2010 CTS and the Carfax states Minor Damage. It goes on to state where the damage occurred.
It says left front and left rear. It looks fine in the pictures. Do I take a chance or run like heck? Thanks as always
 
Most 11 year old vehicles have had some body damage at some point in their lives. Go look and see if there are any obvious signs of poor repairs, if all looks good have a professional look at it before purchase.
 
Won't hurt to check it out in person. It's eleven years old and if it looks shabby, walk away.
 
Inspect and determine. When the damage happened matters, too. If it's recent, it's hard to tell how paint will hold up. If it happened in say 2014 and checks out good, who cares. It's not like your buying a Audi R8.
 
Yeah all cars will get bumped somewhere somehow unless it's a total garage queen. Maybe it just got backed into in a parking lot or something.
 
It all depends on the skill level of the person who fixed the damage.

I'm still driving a 2004 truck that was within $1000 of being totaled back in 2009.
