Yeah, I'd have a hard time calling any car with that many miles "mint"...

I know, I already contacted him and go the low down on all the info, it has been repainted, infact that was 3mo ago in his shop. It is called a street paint job, meaning that it is fine for any car, but not as detailed as a classic car paint job, but hey, doesn't bother me, this one will be a driver.

CarFax only catches accidents and damage reported to insurance companies and such. There are so many ways around reporting **** that carfaxes are basically worthless. They are mainly used to prod people into buying a car, not deterring them...

that is true, so unless some one had an insurance claim on the car, nothing would show other then the ownerships.

Nice car, good buy. I don't like the color, but who cares what I think? There are ALOT of things changed on that car so, no, not everything in that car is the same as what would come stock in a GSL-SE. Just from glancing at a couple of the pics, I saw that the steering wheel was changed, as were the seats, the shift boot, the rear taillights...

Maybe you should ask the seller exactly HOW MUCH he made of of all the parts he ripped out of your car and sold, replacing them with cheaper parts.

Not to rip on ya or be an , just to make you aware.

Good buy though.
