Beware Dallas White LNF Coupe

Cars for Sale: 2010 Chevrolet Cobalt SS Coupe in Addison, TX 75001: Coupe Details - 404431383 - Autotrader

Car is listed for sale on autotrader under the dealer "Texas Hot Rides"

Stock No. 615213 VIN 1G1AG1FX3A7166217

I've seen these before where the "carfax" checks out but somehow the report shows no issues. When you run an autocheck (the more accurate of the big two in my experience) it comes up as frame/unibody damage.

I wouldn't doubt it, a lot of these independent dealers are really shady and really will do anything to make a profit.

I was looking for an LNF sedan but it looks like there just to few and I'm not willing to overpay to play. There was a white one near me in Austin, was about to get traded in to Covert Ford but apparently the douchebag couldn't handle his wife and backed out on a two car trade (apparently he had two LNF's) that the dealer had already made a promise to me.

They're definitely overstating that
It should say leather-like trimmed seats since there is just a couple pieces around the edges

Also was thinking maybe it's original owner switched seats with a previous gen owner for cash since the vehicle was being totalled out.

Texas Hot Rides
From what I've been reading the damage could be minimal like a bumper replacement, up to serious frame damage.

Just look at the dates though, that really tells the story for me. The car went a Whole calendar year and three months just to get it back on the road. To me that means some serious repairs where made.
