Hi guys my friend is looking into joining the G family. He's looking at a 07 IP COUPE with 50,000 miles for 14.5k. The catch is, the G has a branded title due to a small front end damage which was fixed. Do you guys think it's still a good deal? should he stay away from it due to the title?

 

i would buy it..what color interior?

 

Tan seats/dash and without the aero package

 

stay away from salvaged titles..

 

Attractive price, but I would stay away from the branded title.

 

It's very doubtful that it was small damage... Not to mention the resale value of salvaged titles are much less

 

damage was enough to total the car...only reason for salvage title besides theft recovery.

 

Salvage and branded titles mean the samething? i had a mechanic look at it and he said the car was fine

 

Which brand? The only other classification for title that I'm aware of is TMU...bad either way.

 

The salvage title w/b with your G forever which means when you decide to sell her (if you can) you'll get far less. No mechanic can just look at a car and tell if there's unibody damage or not, it takes putting it on an alignment rack and doing precise measurements.
I'd seriously pass on the "Great Deal" it could easily become a $$ well....

Actually pretty easy to see unibody damage by putting it on a lift

 

I would pass on this and look for a better G

 

NO salvaged title...

 

Thanks for the feedback guys!! but in the end...my friend chose to pick up anywayss!! hopefully there will be no future problems with the car haha
