    Well first off I want to thank all of you that gave some advice.
    Today Eddie (scorpion) and I went back to the lot and got to take a closer look at it. We were extremely lucky because the dealership was closed but the car was unlocked!! So we got to really get a good look see.
    We came to the conclusion that this car HAS been in some kind of accident because of the evidence of a little bondo on the drivers door.
    We also found evidence of water stains in the back seat, modified exhaust and front bumper damage. Just a lot of little things started to add up so we decided not to go further with this car.
    Again, thanks to all that helped especially you Eddie.

    No problem. Anything for a friend. The car was in pretty bad shape. I mean not bad but like you said a shit load of small shit. But like you said the best part was that the dealership was closed and the car was open. They probably left them unlocked for someone to steal them. Lmfao. They'll make the money that way.

    But you guys will find one. Maybe she'll get the red base and I can get the handles lmao. Good luck with your search. Let me know if you need some help bro.

    Funny you say that Eddie because we did check out that base one and looks like I could use your help again to check this one out. But a heads up, she likes the solid door handles look better than the GT style.
