I just purchased a 08 XLR-V and it is supposed to be delivered to Reno from Fla. this Tuesday 1-31-23. I am sure I will have questions once it gets here.

Check it carefully. Lot of flood cars entering the market one 09 on ebay that was up over the seats in water and seller mentions nothing about water and says everything works perfectly. Haha of course there are very good non damaged cars out of florida also

Thank you Mickeytee for the advice. I am aware that the car was in a flood in 2017. It was listed as minor water intrusion by the insurance company. She has had over 20k miles since then. Jenkins Mazda sent video's of the exterior, interior, and put it on a rack and videotaped the entire undercarriage for me. Now an update on the shipping. The latest ETA is sometime Monday. I sure hope so as I have a DMV appointment on Tuesday. In Nevada it takes 4 to 8 week to get an appointment. Thanks to everyone for your support.

Best of Luck!

hope it works out. This owner is braver than the indian chief .NoCheese. Some flood cars can be repaired. Ive always driven repaired wrecks because i know bent and broken and how to do factory approved repairs. Water scares me.

Well the car arrived today. It is only two weeks late and I believe that the driver averaged 110 miles per day. There are a few issues such as the luggage barrier is missing and the windshield wiper fluid pump doesn't work. It runs and drives well. Lots of power so I will definitely have a learning curve on this one.
