Here's what I would do: If you are truly worried, call an independent shop in the area and have them do an inspection on the car. Put down a deposit on a credit card, so if you get there and notice some major problem and the dealer refuses to refund your deposit, you can dispute it with your credit card company. In disputes, your credit card company will almost always favor you. I've purchased multiple cars sight unseen successfully. Do your research, have a backup plan, and you'll be just fine.
