Buying a second hand car........advice?

[auxmike]

My friend's used '05 Corvette convertible came up clean on CarFax. He had to do something for the car with his insurance company 2 years later and found out THEN that the car had $6k worth of bodywork claimed in the past by the first owner in this PRIVATE purchase. The guy stated the car had never been hit.
