Structural damage reported, car would drive like a 1'O' clock eyed person grin meaning front would face North while rear would face west.

Final verdict too much accident don't buy.

pics of the car will be helpful.

You should inspect for rust since origin is Canadian.

Finally 237439 miles is a lot for a recent car.

One of the reasons we get salvaged accidented cars is because of low mileage.

Hmmmm, 237k miles on a 7 year old car is a lot. On the flip side, that means it was mostly a highway car, which is better.

Hmm.

I am still licking my wounds , so,

Since the car in in Nigeria, Please go physically to check it yourself(and go with somebody who is knowledgeable in Pre-Purchase Inspection. But TRUST NO ONE. Some Nigerians are too dishonest abeg).

Arm yourself with knowledge bro. Read about what to expect, buying such a used vehicle. It is accidented. The mileage is high. So Do not expect a problem free car.

If something is not right, please walk away. This Camry is everywhere. If you dont buy it today, tomorrow is still there for you. The key is patience.

Run from that car
The accident had been fix and it had been used so it it good, but the mileage is very high possibly used as taxi.

When it last went for inspection, the car was declared a total loss which means the found bad structural rust in the car that made it unsafe, for road use.

It is not safe to drive such car because soon it will kill you.
