Is it just me or does the driver's door look less shiny and a shade off? There's no information about any damage or a repaint in the ad and they don't include a free car fax, usually a red flag combined with the door. Two strikes against it if I were looking at it.

Driver's door is a definite repaint, as is the rear bumper. With so many of these cars around and in silver no less, why would anyone buy it from eBay?

You guys have a good eye, I didn't notice this in the pictures at first, but definitely would have in person.

Googled the vin and 3rd result down was from salvagebid.com, not a good indication even though they apparently sell clean cars. Probably purchased from a salvage auction and fixed up.

I bought my LS and GS from ebay, just have to be careful and do alot of research.

Yeah thats always a quick way to know if it was salvage. My GS was actually salvage due to a flood but I bought it knowing that and paid about 1/2 the price.
