Yes, This is that car. I brought the car to a good body guy. He put the car up. The underside is pristine factory condition. he checked the cars underside for signs of nuts removed etc etc. Car looks like a 2000 mile car. The drives door was painted. He then did a complete inspection of the inside of the door frame and skin and found no sign of anykind of damage. He then checked to build stamps of the door and are all match the rest of the body code stamps. In his opinion the car door may have been a repaint after if it failed quailty standards or the car door may have been keyed or scratched at the in transit or at the dealership.
After viewing the cars underside / interior / factory markings labels that are in pristine condtion, I really felt good about the car.

afraid to drive it.

Kinda of. I go on quick trips. I will say that these cars need to be driven. When I first got the car, it ran alittle rough. Had my mechanic check a few things. He recommended that I start in for an hour a day and drive it at least once a week and call him in a month. Well, after following his instruction he was right. The car now idles perfectly and feels quicker than when I first drove it. When I first got the car and gave it alittle juice in first gear it picked up but that was it. Now if I do the same thing the tires are easly spinning if Im not carefull. So If a put 200 miles a year on the car that good enough for me and the car
