i hear ya.. my girlie recently bought a honda del sol and didnt bring it to me to look at first because the carfax(provided by the dealer) checked out 1 owner clean as a whistle.. when she got it home, i looked at the headlights and they looked a little different so i looked closer, touched the drivers side corner and the lens fell off of the housing!... then looked at the badly curb rashed rims, and noticed red paint on them, so i looked at the key hole for the trunk, theres bad overspray on that as well, various other small problems, i tracked down the one owner... turns out it was my moms neighbors sister (go figure!) talked to her and she had been in an accident that destroyed most of the drivers side, so the whole car had been repainted then sold once the work was done.. lucky for us the car runs great and the paint job is very well done minus the overspray
