I'm sure you made a good choice as it may have been flooded or possibly something else. But it could have been something else. Tons of air fresheners? Some people, especially SE Asians and Indians, seem to really like car air fresheners. May be a cultural thing. My 98 had rusty seat tracks from people sitting in the back seat in the winter. My 60 has a rusty cigarette lighter for some unknown reason. Sun roofs get out of alignment occasionally, especially if rarely used, but that is a semi-easy fix.
My experience with flooded cars are that if they were really flooded, especially with salt water, they are dead. Rusty parts under the dash, cloudy door and interior lights, muddy fog, tail lights, mud under the carpet, etc.
