I called the salesmen today, told him the deal etc etc told him I was extremely disappointed blah blah blah anyways he said he will be calling me in the morning after he talks with the boss to see what they can do to make it right...Now i'm not sure what "right" is going to be for me but I'll atleast listen to their offer, honestly you cant tell the car has been wrecked, body lines are straight, paint looks factory, car rides straight etc...I have a 2011 Cummins diesel and a 03 Cobra, the GS was only for a daily driver 5 miles to and from work and to drive when its ****ty out so if the price is right I still may consider making a deal.

i hope you will get one heck of deal if you still want to purchase this GS. thats just too much for 200K GS400 AND accident

if i were you, i'd stay away. who knows the truth behind it.

uhhh guys, I don't think he has the car. Carfax indicated it was in bad shape. ROBO, do your HW next time. and if it was from a dealer, you should have requested a carfax on the spot.

I have had this happen to me, too anxious and purchase a lemon, and its too late after purchase is made. Getting the shaft by the seller.

Next time, spend the carfax $$. Could save you thousands.

Lol it just seems like the quick reply was sent after they saw the first post.

I've noticed this in several threads

OP, did you purchase the car?? I hope not. I saw that you posted that it had a clean carfax record but later stated that you didn't even look at the carfax. Please do your own HW next time. If the carfax is bad, I'm certain the autocheck record looks worse. I usually check both of them becasue autocheck has info that carfax doesn't (auction notices).

Thomas, I tried to check out the carfax but it didn't come up.
