2010 rx8. Would you buy sight unseen?

Hello all!
i came across this rx8 and i used love these cars back in the day. It also cross country so i wont be able to drive it. Would u pull trigger? I know they not reliable and etc. Just a fun car to rip around in. For 12 g looks new. My last car was e90 m3 so maint should stil be cheapish i think haha.

I'd definitely want to get more pictures, especially ask about the underside of the car. Some dealers will put the car up on a lift and do underside pictures/vids for you. From the side picture they showed it looks like there may already be rust along the bottom rocker panel pinch weld.

Otherwise it comes down to engine compression and hoping the first owner didn't do something stupid.
