Default ouch! banged up tC on ebay

i was looking around ebay today and found this
http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...506886207&rd=1

looks pretty bad although they say its just "minor" damage. I saw a post by a performance parts manufacturer looking for a damaged tc but couldnt find the thread,
so if anyone is looking for a moderatly damaged tC to do some research here's your boy(reserve is under 10k).

Wow, that's frigging weird, the first couple pics I was thinking to myself, hmm, the damage MUST be minor, I can't see anything wrong with it, then I scroll down and I'm just like WTF?!

Doesnt look like that much damage to me???

The only downside is since the car is brand new parts will be expensive and Im sure hard to get.

I just got back from FL. While I was there, I saw an Azure Pearl pass me in the opposite direction. I looked in my mirror and the rear bumper cover was gone and the passenger tail light was crushed. I though that was bad 'til I saw this.

I bet it will. High pressure buffer and a bit of Scratch-X and it will be like brand new.

If you look at the picture of the door, the handle part is cut out, I also saw another car on ebay with the same type of handle cut out, does anyone know how this could happen.

Maybe the driver was stuck and the emergency personel had to use the "jaws of life"
