doesn't look too bad. Yes, the hood and grill looks like it has been replaced (although I think the hoods are the same so it could just be the grille)

I would say that the miles are good, but only consider it after a carfax and a good inspection of the whole car.

the premium gas is worth it for a supercharged/premium engine.. trust me. once you go blown you never want to go back.

im with Geoff on this one, it doesnt look as bad as you guy a making it out to be, just the wrong grill(maybe the last owner just liked that grill more or thats all he could get as a replacment) and whats wrong with after market whells?.. lots of members here have them and for the most part the ones that do tent to take better/more care of there cars
