I have no affiliation with that dealership and haven't been a customer. I'm just pointing out that based on what you posted, you didn't really get screwed since it sounds like you had all the information before hand.
I personally would have wanted it examined by an independent shop with an accident showing on it's report (which means I wouldn't have bought it since dealers don't like that).

I acknowledge there was some ignorance on my part. But the guy insisted the CARFAX entry was solely due to the windshield being replaced. The repair is actually quite good. I've had the car for more than a month now and just realized the bumper and fender aren't original.
Live and learn.
