36k miles with that accident I would offer $46k... I would not pay $51 K for that mileage with the accident.

I would stay away from it. 50K is a lot of money for this vehicle that has been in an accident and with that king of mileage.
New 2017 prices are coming down to low 70s. New 2016 are in the mid 60s(there's still some left!). I would expect a used 2016 without any accident in the 50s. I would wait it out.

That is just too much money for that car with that many miles - I would look for another car. They haven't been completely honest with your at this point and even if you do get a lower price for this car you will still have a car with a Car Fax accident history going forward that may be difficult to sell later.

There are other cars out there - good luck.

it matters how long you keep your cars as well. If you plan on driving this past 100k the accident will not matter very much. You would need to drive this car and make sure the doors are sealed, no rattles, etc
I would even test another gsf to compare interior noise levels.

OP - you should pass on that car. Spend a bit more for a '16 without an accident.

Also keep in mind that accident will kill your resale/trade-in down the road when you're
ready to move on.

I agree with the others... that mileage and needed repairs, not worth it. Plenty out there below $55k with no accidents like the one in the link above ~ 2016 Orange/Black with 24k miles for $50.5k. Good luck in your search.

Brand new car can be had in the mid 60s, why buy a 16 with 30k miles and a accident history for 51k??? Doesn’t make sense.

thats some high mileage for the year and this type of vehicle. a lot of wear and tear type of driving can be done with 36k miles and a near 500hp car.

I wouldn't go for anything over mid 40's either with an accident and almost 40K miles on it and those pictures show some wear and tear on the seats and inside the doors, so it wouldn't surprise me to find more cosmetic issues not in the pictures.
