Default Opinion on buying used 2005 Stratus SXT 2.4

I'm looking at a 2005 Stratus SXT 2.4 4cyl. It has 25,000 miles on it and there asking 9,000 for it. Its certifies pre-owned and has a clean carfax except for one accident that reported very minor damage to front left corner. Does this sound like a fair price? I think it sounds good but I wanted a second opinion.

check kbb.com and nada.com against the features and mileage and work from there if it's a "good deal" or not. The prior maintenance of the car has a lot to do with it's reliability.

I bought my stratus with 140,000mi and it's been rock solid for the past year, being beat on as a pizza delivery car. A co-worker of mine, bought a truck with 60,000mi, and he has had problems since he bought it.

Coupe or sedan? Either way, 25k miles for an 05 is pretty good.

It's a sedan. Makes it a lot easier to put snowboards in the back. I just bought it today I love it. I liked my old one but this one is even better.
