Invoice is $25k under the pre-tax/delivery $440k MSRP.

Would the dealer disclose the repair history if buyer ask for it?

1/3 of the price off from the msrp is a must.

Are you buying it for a third off original Msrp ?

Hey Jackey, I'm sure Pioneer Centres would disclose it. I saw this car before and after it was hit and I must say they did a magnificent job at the replacement (NOT REPAIR) of the body parts, panels and mechanical components (hence the $140k replacement tag) It seems like the car is all of a sudden forsaken due to the accident. Ideally, this is now a NEW car more or less.

It doesn't matter. Nobody with the cash to buy a car like this is going to be stupid enough to pay remotely close to market on a car with damage history as severe as $140k.

Absolutely they'd be on the hook for significant litigation if they didn't. They told me when I asked. If a dealer selling a $435k car has knowledge of a $140k accident in it, you bet they better tell the buyer. I'd go as far as to say they have very meaningful liability if they knew, but did not disclose, even if they weren't asked. You can rest assured someone buying a $400k+ car would sue the crap out of any such unethical dealer - just for sport!

Don't forget that the people who would buy these cars would also most likely have lawyers on retainer, and since idle hands are the devil's workshop, a suit like that would kill 2 birds with one stone.

Actually, at today's Dollar/Euro exchange rate, Europeans would be better off buying their cars in the U.S. Each dollar costs about .76 Euros which makes the MSRP of the U.S. CGT equal to 334,000 Euros, about a 14% discount.
