    How people can take such horrible care of a car is beyond me. I have a 2017 Honda CRV (I know, boring) that I bought new. It has 64,000 miles on it and there is not one scratch on it. The interior is as new. Yes, it has been garaged and driven by an old couple, but we have always taken care of our cars and have had sports cars and fast cars when we were younger. They were all taken care of. The guy who owned this just did not care.

      I agree with you. I also take meticulous care of my vehicles. I purchased a second vehicle (99 Buick) to save fuel on my 90 mile daily commute, but even it is strictly serviced and kept in tip-top shape.
      Some people seem to purchase these expensive cars simply because they can afford the risk of costly repairs as a result of abuse. To be that wealthy must be nice.
      But as frugal as I am, even if I could afford a car like this, I would still work to ensure that it lasts a few generations.

    As a Mopar enthusiast and Mopar hooptie connoisseur. The pealing paint on the upper radiator support and just the way it’s painted in general tells me without doubt the support has been replaced. Whichever and whatever accident that things been in was probably a lot worse then the carfax leads us to believe. The damage is usually pretty nasty when that upper support needs to be replaced. Hopefully you get lucky and the frame is still in good shape.

They'll pop it into neutral and push it around the block and then program a new key and take off. So I'd look into installing a kill switch and/or keep it hidden in a garage.

    If you can fix the audio issues (missing speakers), you can drop in a newer UConnect without needing to program anything, Carplay is nice to have. It's a super easy mod to do and I'd 100% recommend it.
    That said, that car is ROUGH. I seriously wonder what the owner did to make the interior look like that.
    Worst part is that you need a whole new front fascia at the very least, and maybe a new right front fender. Looks like the mounting studs on the fascia were ripped out.
    Also surprised to see that it doesn't look like it got the Harmon/Kardon speaker system. It's quite decent for a factory system, but it won't win a SPL battle

I personally owned a few Mopars. Back in the late 70's. A 68 Roadrunner 383.then a 69 426 Hemi Roadrunner. And a 71 dodge Challenger RT SE. with a built up 440. THOSE WERE THE DAY.
