No I would not buy your car. And it is likely that once back to the dealer no on else who knows of the damage will either.

Any significant rear end damage in a 911 is a deal breaker, and the fact that the frame has twisted makes it even less desirable. I would run and never look back.

Dump it. Two accidents worth over 10k each would make a prospective buyer run far far away.

Cosmetic damage, consider keeping her. Frame or mechanical damage? Easy...dump it.

Ask yourself this. If you were in the market for a used 911 and there was one sitting on a dealers lot with frame damage for 80K would you even consider going for a test drive or would you keep looking?

Thanks all for your input. I think its pretty much settled - going to be giving the car back. Now have to figure out what to get in place of it

The best advice I've ever been given with regards to cars is 'whatever you buy you eventually need to sell.' That said a car with two accidents and frame damage will always have a story. There are too many clean vehicles out there and frame damage no matter how good the repair will always send prospective Porsche buyers running. Why take the risk on a leased vehicle? There is no upside for you.
