Smile Yes or no?

There's an SRT-4 near me that has body damage all on the right side but nothing else is affected i.e. the engine, tranny, and everything else. There selling it for $7,500 with I think about 19,995 miles on it. Would you buy it? I have people who are able to fix it for alot cheaper than dealerships and everything else.

Re: Yes or no?

How bad is the damage exactly? Is the whole right side totally screwed or is it just a little dented/crumpled? As long as you can get it fixed for a reasonable price, go for it.

Hell no! They'd have to come WAAAAAY down in price. If you know a bodyshop guy and he's willing to give you a big break on labor...maybe.

Re: Yes or no?

If you really think it can be fixed for cheap its fine but i would definately have the body shop take a look at it first and give yu a price because i bet when you get it to the body shop your going to realize theres alot more wrong with it then you thought.
