looking to buy an 05

Suburban, 1500 LT model with very nice leather, 92000 miles, DVD, Onstar, 4X4, tow pkg, etc. That's the good stuff. The bad: it has been hit in the front, repaired, and either has a salvage title or maybe a rebuilt. I haven't seen the paper yet. The repair work looks very good except the right front fender isn't lined up very well (touches the p.door). I'm taking it to a body/frame shop in the AM to look at it.

Also, the "Service ride control"(?) light is on and it might need repair of the Autoride. I know those replacement shocks are expensive, but I suspect there was damage to the sensors or selenoids from the collision rather than a failure of the actual shocks. Everything else is supposed to be working fine.

The price is right, but not if I have to put $2K into repairs. Still, I'm about to put up cash for the burb and want some opinions on buying what could be the best deal of the year...or the worst moneypit in Nevada.
