My car has been in an accident!!, Bought it from toyota and carfaxed Options

[97sccelica]

Well, after having my car for a year, i recently found overwhelming evidence that my car has been in an accident.

here are the signs

driver's side mirror used to be from a purple color celica.
driver's fender has been cheaply repainted
over spray in door jambs
blue ish color showing on bottom of door jamb on the driver's side
left quarter panel window nolding does not match and is not uniform with the roof

among a few other things.

the thing is that before we bought the car, we had the dealer get us a carfax and it was clean, according to carfax. there was, however, a 9 month period where the car was not registered for some reason(i think i know why now)

anyway, as far as i know, dealers are not allowed to sell cars that have had more than $500 in damages. and even then they have to tell you if the car has had any damage.

so tomorrow my dad and i will go to a body shop, get an official report saying it has been in an accident and go show it to the toyota dealer and see what they say(and, we will casually mention that my aunt is a lawyer ).

i was going to install the turbo stuff tomorrow but i have to see how this mess pans out.

they said it was not in an accident. and carfax said the same.

as fow unusual tire wear, i had to get new rear tires because certain spots got bald quick. also the outside edges of the tires on all four corners wore down a lot faster than the rest of the tire
