The side dent in the picture is on the driver side, but the passenger side as the same dent but smaller. The door jam is also rusted quite heavily but not rusted through. Soft top is torn where it meets the door. Plastic back window getting foggy.
All matching VINs except driver front fender as stated in Carproof, rear bumper is a replacement that is mismatched in colour and misaligned, not shown on Carproof.
Car drove normal, no hesitation, no funny noises, quiet diff, no heavy clutch buzz.
Carpets are all dry but there hasn't been rain either.
The body work made me think that it wasn't worth fixing. The dents in the door will probably require new doors and the quarter panel repair is going to be extensive.

As for that one, other than the shabby bodywork, I have a weird feeling about it. At $13,000 pretty firm and that condition of bodywork, I don't think it's worth it.

I did think about it + considered swapping it out for my car.
Ultimately it would be an easy ish flip as the same car in the USA would be 18K+ given the current market for clean low mileage ITR's. There are a number of Americans watching for these cars in Canada right now.
Having said all that, for the few G's a guy might make, it's just not my thing.

The owner just found out that there was a 19k hit on it yesterday (hence why the price was lowered to 6.5k)

I bet he intentionally put 4000km, and if anybody called him out on it, he would say "woops typo 40000km"

Everything else is replaceable. Given the time of the claim(early 2000's) it is entirely possible considering the price of parts when the car was much younger. Previously crumpled frame rails should be visible while viewing the engine bay.

regardless, the lack of consistency should raise some flags for any potential buyer.

True. But one could still get a good deal by doing their due-diligence with an inspection. Shady/stupid sellers can be weeded out with enough info about the car itself.

That car was hit when it was brand new basically. That means it was repaired properly... there was no jobber parts like the market is today in 2001
Also good detective work trollguy
