Copart Mustang as my first car? financial mistake?

[mc68386]

Hi guys I'm new to reddit. Saw this rear-ended 2015 mustang ecoboost on copart, 52k miles, pure sale. I have been looking for my first car, so how much damage are we talking about here?(from how the picure looks) To me it just looks like some body work at quaterpanel and trunk area, potentially the bumper & hidden suspension damage. I was actually surprised by this car was totaled by this little of damage(at least for what it appears to be to me). Every fix will be on budget(use aftermarket & used parts as much as possible). The car still does run and drive, would this be a great risk to bid on without seeing the car in person? if so, how much will be a reasonable bidding price for this car? (my budget is around 9k)

All answers will be greatly appreciated!

Well the kid from Cristine did a full restoration on a 1958 Fury, so I'm sure you can handle cosmetic repairs on a newish Mustang. I never saw the end of that movie but I'm sure it turned out OK.

Fenders buckled outward usually means the frame is bent behind it. You should be able to find an assortment of nice S197s within your price range that are ready to go.
