2000 toyota camry head gasket repaired by certified mechanic by (seemingly honest dealer), over 150,000 miles: should I consider purchase of walk away? Thanks

You don’t know what else may have been effected due to collateral damage from the head gasket failure.  I would walk away.

I thought so, thanks!

Definitely run away from this one.

Thought so, thanks.

If they are so confident that the work was done correctly, what kind of warranty are they offering?  No warranty, no sale.

For that matter, what kind of "dealer" is selling a 22-year-old Camry, and what kind of "certified" mechanic do they have on staff? It would not suprise me to find it's some bottom-feeder gyp joint whose "certified mechanic" threw some sealer into the cooling system to "fix" the leaky head gasket.

hmm, good points, thanks guys, decided to pass.
