So, I'm not in the market for a new car, love my '18 Sport HB 6MT... but I was surfing around and saw this...

Seems reeeeaaally cheap. Talks about replaced parts, so I'm thinking it was in an accident but perhaps not totaled, the listing says clean title.

Anyhow, I thought it was interesting. Anyone bother to find out the story?

"Replaced parts: Front bumper cover, front reinforcement bar, right headlight, Rad/condenser/fan and hood . All the work has been performed in our bodyshop. "
No way to know the quality though

Accident on private property or accident that was never reported? Previous owner could've crashed it in to their house and had it fixed outside of insurance?

Seems too good to be true. People selling cars aren't in the business of charity. I totally get selling your car for a competitive price so you can get rid of it sooner, but at this price its pretty much a bigger loss than anything. Damage was extensive on that car most likely, and the seller knows this so he is selling it for this price. However, it could have been repaired adequately for all you know. I'd say your best bet if you really are interested is to get a pre purchase inspection at a shop and see what they say, then go from there.

Didn't say anything around fixing the front airbag. Looks like the passenger side airbag blew out on that one.

Using its vin, I can't find any of the photos of the car beforehand, but I'd still run and hide from this thing
