Should I avoid buying previous rental vehicle?
It's up to you. Get the car checked out, look at the conditions, check all the wheels see how bad the curb rashes are or if there are any, look at the interior condition. Pay a personal mechanic to do an all around inspection on the car, throw it on an alignment and check for any accident, or frame damages. After that if everything is perfect and the price is right I don't see a problem. But generally yes rental vehicles general do take a beating.
You ever walk out to the bad side of town, that area where people mill about until all hours of the night? You ever see that lady standing on the corner? You know which one I'm talking about: missing teeth, scraggly hair, wearing either a dirty dress or a torn up club trash outfit, wrinkles in her face like your nut sack hanging on a fine winter morning? Now imagine that girl is your rental car. Everybody's been inside her, taking her for a ride. Now since she's not really that person's girl there's no dinner and a movie, no scented candles and bubble baths, no nice gifts and presents, none of that. There is no sweet gentle love making, just hard fast down and dirty pounding, over and over and over again. Now tell me.....you really want to marry that?
P.S. My story only pertains to pure rental vehicles. Leased vehicles are like short term girlfriends, you may not buy her a diamond ring but you'll still keep her clean and presentable to show to your mother.

I purchased a Honda after a someone turned it in after a 3 year lease and I owned the car for 7 years without a single issue. The car ran perfectly and just sold it with 160k miles on it for my G37 that I'm picking up saturday. I had a great experience but I'm sure thats not the case for all leased cars.
