The monogram has a couple cosmetic things like shift knob etc but no big deal. I haven't seen under the hood, mostly because I didn't inquire to. I was leaning more toward the cheaper one as it's closer, and leaves money for mods down the road after I've gotten used to the car.

I personally will not buy a car that's been modded because I know the previous owner more than likely drove the car hard. So take that into consideration also. When I bought my car i was looking at 2 at the time. One was lowered, had rims, exhaust and intake on it. All things I would want done to my car. The other one was all stock. I bought the stock one.

Believe it or not but I was faced with a similar decision. There was a 2014 monogram firestorm with 11,000 miles listed at 18,500 but it was in an accident. The pictures of the car looked as if nothing happened. I probably would of loved the car and never noticed it was in an accident, but I went with a 2013 firestorm with 17,500 miles that was listed at 18,500 as well. I never went to visit the Austin car but it was sold really fast, congrats to who got it. I don't regret the decision because I believe more options shouldn't out weigh the feeling that you don't know what the car has really been through

Highly doubtful. It is 18,989 now that I found it again. I did a quick scan earlier.

Wow that is a great deal. Make sure you have it checked by an independent mechanic. It really seems to good to be true. Its brand new and should be a lot more then 19k I would think. The stripe has to go though. lol

I would probably go with the monogram just based on the options, which are quite nice to have. The bumper can probably be fixed fairly easily, if it is just cosmetic damage, but I think 19K is too much. Kelly blue book average for that year and mileage from a dealer is 19K, and they are selling a car with visible damage. I would offer them 16.5, and maybe go up to 17. If they say no, you can always get the regular one.
