Not only does the seller SHOUT thru the whole description but I don't think it's very repairable...

I guess anything is repairable, especially if you want to replace everything on that car and pay more than buying a new one.

Oh SURE! Just a little fixer-upper! Someone needs to adjust their medication level!

The rentals Ive seen have a strip along the door protecting from door dings. only offered on fleet orders.

Either way its toast

What are you guys new? That would be a simple repair job:
1. Jack up license plate
2. Install new car onto license plate

DONE!

This car does have that body side molding on the door, which does suggest a rental or fleet car. If rental, I wonder if the renter was smart enought to pay for lose/collision coverage? Ouch! $2700? Anyone else think that'a bit high considering what would need to be done to restore this car?

Looks like a good car for parts, well atleast any parts from the Passenger side door foward, everything else isnt even worth the trouble. Who would actually buy something like that?
