more likely, it's so easy to reserve the car (like bidding below reserve on an auction) that people do it just as wishful thinking.

They call you a TAXI? That doesn’t sound like a plus LOL

I had this car shipped to San Jose and inspected it Sunday. Full front clip and mirrors have clear bra. Only damage on the front end is the plate install (ugh) and chin spoiler which they said they’d replace. Looks like it’s seen light track work based on the rubber on the wheels. Missing one half brake duct on driver’s side. Driver’s lower side seat bolster is worn but not torn. Driving it felt fine, but I noticed it seemed to be stuck in loud mode. Switch didn’t do anything that I could perceive.

You should check the over-rev if you can.

@sbarbour paint meter the car, even over the clear bra you can verify consistency, then get an over-rev report, it's likely under OEM warranty if there are any small issues it'll be covered

Sbarbour I bet they may have disabled the PSE to default loud... you can check if the vacuum line is still attached to the valve on the rear muffler.

How much were they asking for it,and how many miles did it have?

It looked pretty rough from those pictures.

Also I might add that the CPO warranty only adds 2 years and I bet you pay a $3k premium for it. You can get a 6 year Fidelity Platinum warranty for under $4k. 4 year for under $3k

This probably means that the catalytic converter is on its way out and already has a small hole.

The dealer should and will fix this under warranty as it is emissions related and not subject to 50k 4 year warranty limit

Probably also means more than a little track work

Now for sale in WA.

Any chance somebody here has history on the car?
5 years on and the bumper holes are still there. Ha.

Wondering the same thing, Let us know if you go look at it. I'm not sure there ever was an explanation of the rear end damage noted on the car fax report.

I never took a look at it in person and have found another car.

Looks like they've steadily been lowering the price though.
