I'd save up and get a car thats not damaged so you don't have to invest so much work to get it fixed.
Based on all the wrecked, keyed and stolen threads on this forum... the value of the SC has dropped very much. The big issue is, the cost to repair hasn't.
That rear end damage can easily cost a couple of K unless you live in a labor-cheap area or know some friends. My dent like that on my previous Lexus cost me 3.5K to fix. That rear fender is a ***** to repair and make it look perfect.
And my final bit of advice, In the future I'm getting a automatic and swapping over to a manual. Manual cars tend to be far more abused as there's much more room for driver error. This is my opinion so if someone flames me for it, your words are falling on deaf ears.
