depends on how long you will keep the car. 1-1.5 years? Sure! Anything more than that...maybe not. Remember these cars generally get abused, hence the cheap price.
Your call.

Based on your rental experience, would you recommend buying a car from Hertz? Do you think Hertz does a good job of keeping their cars well-maintained and clean?

And what do you think of buying an ex-rental car in general? I guess a renter may abuse a sporty car, but if it's just a Camry ...
