Run away, check the reputation of this dealer on here through a search, not good.

They are completely lying to you when they say there is "no history of collision". It's been hit hard in the rear at least, which seems obvious to me from the pictures. Look at the rubber accordian pieces on each side of the bumper and how they are distorted. What about the damaged rear wheel, the one pictured with the bend? The exhaust pipes are not straight, they are twisted on the passenger side - HIT. The driver's side turn signal housing is not fitting into the body. The passenger side fender is dimpled. The rear trunk lid is not attached and may be dimpled, bent too. Come on! The collision damage is obvious and the dealer is trying to screw you.

Edit, yes, fifth picture from the last - gas tank is dented in, front bumper bent. All is fixable, but my point is that the dealer is lying if they claim there has not been a collision.

I would not trust a single thing the dealer says. Get a proper PPI and get an amazing price, but be prepared for some work, starting with a frame shop and check to see if the car is straight.
