Well it says it's salvaged titled cause of a theft, and anyway he drives a car that had been in a front end collision and was supposed to be salvaged(it doesn't state it on the pink slip ) and he loves it! And in so. cal. the cheapest we see coupes are $1800 but that's rare! Oh and we have spare parts to fix the enterior and engine.

I have owned a car with a salvaged title and would say you should keep looking. The car i owned never gave me any fits but the problems come when trying to resale the car ex...

You will NEVER get what you put into it! I say, take your time to find a better one and or spend the extra 500 bucks for a clean body and clean title. I found my car in San Diego on Craigslist for 2600 and I've found that cars tend to be cheaper in LA then in SD.

Your never gonna get what you put into it thats true. I have had a salvage title car before, i didnt have problems with mine either, but that salvage title sticker is an eye sore for buyers. But IMO if your gonna mod the shit out of it, buy it, your not gonna get what you put into it whether its salvaged or not.

$2500 seems a little steep to me for that car.. i bought mine in near-excellent condition for $3500.. nothing wrong with it whatsoever

but who knows, different cars are worth different amounts in different regions
