I've never really understood this. Its a piece of metal. Money permitting it can always be put right.
It certainly wouldn't stop me from viewing the car. It very much depends on the nature of the accident. Get yourself all over it to appraise the quality of the repair. It takes an extremely good body shop to make a repair totally invisible so you'll be able to gauge the original extent. If you can't physically make it out, the chances are you have even less to worry about as they've gone to a lot of effort to put it right. A bodged job will have a bodged finish.

unless the accident is documented (before, during after) and it's only a panel change, I don't want a repaired car.
if you plan on driving the car to the ground then there's no problem, but for resale, buyers are VERY weary of repairs especially if it touches any part of the frame.
even simple bumper scratches, as soon as it's on carfax the car has less appeal.

Biased - but there's something undeniably sophisticated about black coupes and Speedlines.
