These cars are not easy to buy well. A stupid dealer is as bad as a crooked one.

Brucelee is right. For that money you should be able to find a good example where you can talk to the owner, look at maint. records, etc. to find the history of the car and get a sense for how the owner treated it.

If the dealer plays the "I don't know anything about it, innocent me" then you might as well blindly buy from an auction for about 1/2 this price (salvage auction, dealer auction would be a bit more). This dealer would obviously be worthless if you found something major wrong soon after you bought it so better to buy from reputable dealer or better yet a private party who owned the car for a long time.
