These exhaust look like they've been installed incorrectly. Don't you think? This car was advertise as salvage from theft.

My guess would be it's an AP1 with AP2 taillight conv. and AP2 tips on the AP1 exhaust system...

Either way, yes it does appear way off..

i think the tips are installed backwards. right on left, left on right.

ap2 tips fit the ap1 bumper fine.

The exhaust tips just need to be bent out. There are many people that put the AP2 tips on AP1's and they don't have that problem. The mufflers and/or tips are bent in too far.

Well, its AP2 tips and lights, so its probably an AP2 with an incorrect AP1 bumper - notice the lip is painted, not black.

It was probably a back-ended S? If they can't get the correct parts, or get the parts on correctly, I don't know about buying the car...

its possible it was rear ended. However just look at some of the interior features like the steering wheel and the center console. Or look up the vin and it will tell you what model it is. They just look bent to me and need to be installed correctly. Have another party take a look at it to see whats really wrong with it, if much anything.

It's a AP2 my2004. I've decided not to go with it. The interior looks sort of dirty and something about it that does not look right.

Thanks for everyone inputs.
