Hummm, well, since they conviniently didn't take any picture's of the front were it is damaged. Then I can't really tell what all is damaged, other than what he said.
But I would ask him to send you a picture thew E-bay. Before I ever bid on it.
ALso, I'm sure the car will only go for a grand or so less, but if it does go way cheaper. Then it may be a good deal.
But as long as it didn't do anything to the chasis of the car, then it can all be fixed by just bolting on after market bodykits. Which is what 1/2 the people with 3rd gens usually do anyways.

Key Phrase's: AMAZING, RIDICULOUSLY FAST CAR! THESE THINGS WILL HIT 160MPH WITHOUT YOU EVEN TRYING!
:THIS IS THE SAME TYPE OF CAR VIN DIESEL DROVE IN THE FAST AND THE FURIOUS (THE ONE NO ONE COULD BEAT!) iTS THE SAME COLOUR AS WELL.
They might have beat the crap out of the car and u don't know what the engine and tranny are like, Unless u just want to rebuild the engine anyway, I don't know euro's so i have no idea what he's trying to sell it for.

It is going for 3,123.84 USD right now.THe starting bid was 500 euro or 589.40 USD.That is way way way below the average price for an FD that is in fair condition,aside from the front engine damage.Obviously a damaged front end would take down the asking price by a lot,but under $5,000.Does this car even come with an engine,FD's have high sale prices.I can't see this car being in good condition aside from the front end damage.Most FD's would see around the 12,000 euro mark.Add the damage,and I still don't see it adding up.Even the engine would go for more than the car's starting bid.Something most be seriously wrong,or this guy is crazy.
