Repainted cars never have the shine and look of a original car
You obviously do not know any good painters or bodyshops then. I can show you "custom paintjobs" which look better than "factory originals".
As far as the topic is concerned, I'd take a nicely repainted car anyday.
Take a mechanic with you when buying a car, they can identify a repaired car easily. Stuff like replaced bumpers, fenders are common. I don't see any reason why a nicely repaired (with no major accident) should have any less resale value. Moreover when buying a car which has been serviced by 3S dealer can tell you the history of the car. Its better than buying the rubbish heaps that morons say is "in original condition". Dumb fools.
