Wow, that thing is jacked up. Who repaired it I wonder. Not worth $12,000 in that condition. You should buy it Mel and park it next to yours at car shows. It will make yours look even better!

Steer clear of this, the way the front bumper looks it may have frame damage. If I was you I'd ask them to put it up on the lift so you can look at the underbody. Usually when its a "facelift" repair like they have there trying to cover up some frame damage. Still though I wouldn't cough up more then 5g's for that, if there not willing to fix it right why should pay for it like it was.

You should see the over spray all over the weather striping. Hood jacked up this car may even have a salvage title. I'm going to call and fine out.

i cant stand car dealers, and other than buying a new car with their financing i will NEVER buy a car from a dealership again ...

i had a ford dealership near my house tell me that the insurance was different for new 2011 mustang V6's ... and they werent letting people take them for a test drive because of that ... so i left a giant burnout in the parking lot

Or they flash the computer and 2 days later EVERY warning light possible comes on. <- My '02 I had for a few months that I took a 3k loss on selling to a mechanic because it was starting to run awful and had botched body work that I didn't notice until a week later.

What's up with the perforations on the lower lip spoiler? I can see that the grille surround trim is missing as well.
