should that be a deal breaker,I betcha it crunched the hood and more at some point.

Impossible to say from a distance. Is there a CARFAX or similar report? If so, bear in mind that a CARFAX or similiar report may not show any or all repairs if they were kept off of the books. Also, a PrePurchaseInspection (PPI) might uncover repairs - or - the car might be great with a perfectly good reason why it doesn’t have the sticker.

A professional would need to do a hands on inspection to give you an informed opinion.

Thanks Oldcarguy,...I did find out it went to our local Porsche shop, for a front trunk release and a headlight washer fix,.A. he did not mention anything about replacing hood,B.does not show that service on the car fax,just shows tires and Alignment,

Wish I could talk with the last owner,..
