Salesman says it was wrecked, front bumper and driver's side fender were replaced. There also a scratch or crack on the rear passenger quarter panel. Car was purchased from auction off lease in California. Anyone here know more about it? He doesn't have the pictures of the damage before repairs were done....

Kicking around the idea of trading for it, though it would have to be an incredible deal since it's been wrecked. Usually I won't touch a wreck, but that SSG color is so darn good looking

I'm not sure that price is good enough for it's history...

I don't think there's any way that price is good enough considering history and condition.

Did you see the carfax to that car?

Did you see this one in the classifieds? Considering the choice, I'd take one with higher miles, with all the basic mods you would want to do anyway, than the one with two accidents.

All I saw was the AutoCheck and it said there were 2 accidents but didn't report frame damage (that I saw anyway). Where do you see the Carfax at? I don't see it listed on the page. Thanks for the heads up btw.

Yeah I saw it, and it's nice but I'm looking for one w/o stripes.

Be patient and you'll find a car with no history for that price. I'd guess that cars value at 55k-58k.

I checked it for you, see my attachement.

Thanks for the replies everyone, I'm definitely staying away from this one. Gotta love the VCA community!

Yeah I saw the attachment, it's the main reason I'm steering clear of this car. thanks Mamba!

Dang two accidents in 3300 miles! Easy to let your guard down on something with that low of mileage.

You have a PM, but I can tell you that most damaged Vipers in this condition will cost enough to fix that a trade in later usually is close to the price they originally paid. Parts have already gone up considerably , and that is a consideration few check into.

How the hell can a car have two accidents within the first 3000 miles and STILL have an Autocheck score of 91, which is above range!!

Incredible!!
