Desiree, here are a few key points you can consider for your argument:
- "As Is" Clause: Emphasize that the car was sold "as is" which means the buyer accepted the car in its current condition.
- Bill of Sale: If you have a written agreement or bill of sale mentioning "as is," bring it as evidence.
- Buyer Inspection: Mention if the buyer had a chance to inspect the car before purchase.
