Is this likely a Good buy?
I have never owned an H3 so I would appreciate opinions of owners.
2007 H3 luxury i5 3.7l (white with leather interior)
128k miles
Carfax shows 2 minor accidents and not many service records (owners must have DIY or used shops that didn’t report)
No rust except some surface rust on frame
Seller is asking $10,000. Is this a good price assuming all is in good condition?
Also, I have noticed while shopping that most sellers are H3 lovers that have recently dumped a bunch of money into them (usually suspensions, transmission, radiators, and power steering systems)… a trend of only owning 1-2 years and then selling after fixing them. Why not keep them after knowing it has all those new parts.

Hopefully it helps!
Last September 2025 purchased an 08 base 104k miles.
Have put about 2.5k into it and countless hours of rehab. But all told after a ton of work have a low mileage H3. Of course you have to be willing and capable of doing a thing like that.
I'm really glad to have NO sunroof in this one. To many issues. My 07 H3 has sunroof.
All work and sourcing done at home with tools.
