Its been awhile since ive been on here, sold my 05 elise a year ago and have regretted it ever since. I have an opportunity to buy an 06 exige with 14000 miles on it for about 39,000 and was wondering if that seems like a good deal. Two owners, 1 accident reported (scratch in rear, no damage to clam). Overall the car looks to be in good shape. Maybe it was someones on here? Thanks for your help.

Hey Manna! Welcome!

That doesn't seem like a bad deal for that Exige, but I'm not sure how much the reported accident will affect the value... it doesn't sound bad, but if it was so insignificant, why was it even reported? Seems unlikely that a reported accident would not damage the clam... I currently have mine listed with a clean title and about 29k miles with an asking price of $40k... so it seems pretty in line with mine and others that I've seen listed recently.

Thanks for the reply! I guess I need more info on this accident

It sounds like its priced right. Get a PPI. That will tell you a lot about the car.

Maybe the accident isn't that severe... what would REALLY be valuable is if you could manage to get your hands on pictures of the "accident" before it was fixed.
