Beat up trim means water and debris get in and sit in the sills and rust, not to mention it's unsightly. I'd rather see aftermarket glass with replaced weather stripping as it shows the car is maintained by someone who cares and not just the bare minimum is being done to keep it roadworthy. Plus, who wants a 20 year old pitted windshield? They are awful for night driving. I agree that these are not collector cars so general used car buying rules should apply. The reality is you will pay an inflated price for a nice car but to some people it's worth that to know the car hasn't been owned by an idiot who aspires to be ken block.
