How many of you will buy a used car knowing the owner just passed away?

There are some used car sales ad saying the owner just passed away, so they sell it for someone else. How many of you will consider buying a car knowing the past owner was just dead ? Of course he did not die in it.

1. I couldn't care less.
2. all car owners die eventually, as long as he didn't die IN THE CAR, then its not creepy
3. So long as it is what I am looking for.
4. If it's in good working shape, then yes. It's still a working machine. Use it. The person selling it does not need to disclose that information ( that the previous owner passed away). If it really bothers you, but you really like the car, perform some kind of ceremony to make youself feel better, and buy it.
5. if it was a good deal HECK YES!!!!
6. only difference I could see that making is they are not around to tell you about the car. if i liked it I'd buy it.
7. I bought my present car (a Mercedes) from the family of its deceased owner. When I went to view the car it was obvious from the condition of the car, and the owner's workshop, that he'd been a fanatical car enthusiast. Anyway, I bought the car (replacing my previous MB) and have been running it for 2 years. It still runs like new and I look after it in the way in which I am sure the previous owner would approve. I grateful that he cared for it so well while he was alive. So go ahead and buy!
8. sure, I would buy it, as long as it wasn't named Christine
