I'm going to ask why do you care it's been wrecked because they said it hadn't? Most dealerships do not know and buy their cars at auction. Does it drive fine? Is any frame damaged? Does it really matter if it all runs and looks fine? Idk. I was all gung-ho about not buying wrecked cars but if it is put together fine again I could care less. If it isn't disclosed on CARFAX most people won't fin what you found without an inspection.
I had good indication my Miata had been wrecked especially after Scott took a quick look at it. Haven't combed over it but there a small things that point to one such as fenders were taken off and some weird rust spot. There are paint chips but that is supposedly normal. It drives fine and is mechanically stout so far. So, I'm not worried. Nothing was in the CARFAX as well. CARFAX means almost about nothing these days. It's just to make a consumer's mind at ease when buying a car from a dealer even though their can be underlying problems. Luckily I did not find any srs codes on my Miata with the scanner I got for the 3 so I assume if there was a wreck the airbags didn't deploy.
