Buying a car with so much damage, especially when it has fragile aluminum subframes and suspension components is utterly stupid IMO. I can almost guarantee you not every single part that needed to be replaced was replaced, which is typical in any such accident.

With a few grand more, you could buy a perfect example, and most importantly, you'd get that extra money at resale. Something that WILL NOT happen with that other car. Good luck.
+1000 Elp_jc has nailed it, and caught on the first time around to the psychology going on here.

You know my position and rationale already from the prior thread.
