I'd bet it belonged to someone who didn't understand the power this vehicle offers, they got into it at the wrong time and wrong place and it ended up with salvage title on eBay. Their loss will be someon else's gain... I better go knock on wood real quick.

Check out the pictures on E-Bay.....every air bag went off....it looks like the side of the seats have airbags.....it's fixable.

It's programmable too..."Sport Mode" makes the steering noticeably more responsive.
