i'm a new member so yea. i'm going to pick up a g35 tmrw and im wondering if its a good buy. its a 06 6mt white g35 with aero package and 9200+ miles. but its a salvage title and its for $19,915. it had hit in the front.. but im pretty sure it werent bad cuz if it was then they wudnt've fixed it. and its from a auction place. so please giveme some opinions ;]

 

personally, i'd never buy a car with a salvage title no matter what happened to it. But, if you must, it sounds like a good deal to me, really low miles and 6mt, cant beat it.

bring to reputable shop, makesure chassis is straight.

 

You might want to obtain a CarFax report (check their website) by running the Vin#, to track the car history of and find out what exactly happened.

 

Just remember resale value is going to be low. If you ever want to trade it in they wont give much for it.

 

convince seller car I'd junk because of salvage title....then offer 15k.

 

Yeah, I dont think I would purchase a car with a salvaged title. BUT, if you really want to get it I would try to bring it down further like papiloco said.

 

a car w/ a salvage title is like the new york knicks-- they're just all beat up now and dont bother with it

 

Look at the replies on this thread to get some ideas.

A salvage title means NO warranty. So you are giving up a warranty period of 51,000 miles. Not too smart if you ask me. This is especially true when you look at the TSB's for our cars. Small things that go out and need replacement will cost you BIG without warranty.

Step away and look for a car with a good history!
