So you are saying it cost roughly $5,000 to repair ALL of the damage?

My totaled Nissan Maxima...

Well Im fixing my totaled 02 Nissan Maxima right now! the car that I use to drive. At my shop the damages were no less then $6,000 on the estimate. Right now the car is fixed and just need to be painted. Spent $1,000 for the repairs and everying, not including the paint so far.
Im fixing the car and selling it to my bro, and of course that's why Im here cause I want to get a G35

I think the 07 coupes got rear steering so think about that too as it is probably damaged.

My car was hit in the rear and under 200 bucks from being totaled. I loved it and the shop doing the work has many many years of experience. Since insurance paid for it, I said hey why not. Drives the same as when I drove it off the lot.

Edit: Cost = 12,600.00

If you buy a salvaged car you might have issues selling it afterwards...majority of people(depending on your area) will instantly turn their heads away from a car if its salvaged

Once u get the G you'll never sell it any way, so it really doesn't matter.

This is my old thread lol!!!... goes back in the days when I just joined. Well I ended up getting an 07 G35 Sport. Bought the car hit in the front and side, repaired and got the car done overall for cheap!!! =) I actually have a thread of my whole rebuild on there. Have the car for 2 years now and no issues what so ever, runs and drives like new! That's the difference when you fix the car right. I've even modded the car since then. You won't even recognize it =)

Dont recommend buy a salvage. you buy a clean title with around 100k miles for about 11k

Funny how Strafe Auto said they saw my cars damage when i never EVER posted those pics or showed anyone those pics... I guess even after I dont post on here my name cant wash out their mouth..

my car is a Salved car.. the damage wasnt bad at all... I bought the car out of necessity at the time and it was within my price range not really because it wanted that particular car.. the car was bought back in 2009 and i have never had any issues other than those I put myself in with the mods I made to it.... I did not pay to get it fixed I simply saw it crashed and then agreed to pay X amount for it FIXED i dont know what the cost of parts and labor was and dont really care because the car was fixed.. it was a front passenger collision...

here is the link to my build thread.... Im sure you will agree that my car looks WAY better than some Other purple cars that have more vents than I have windows on my house... and fitment is on point.. and only quality parts that outweigh the FACT that it is a SALVAGE car... Anyone that I told the car being salvage cant believe it.. and still think im just lying... YOU be the judge..

https://g35driver.com/forums/general...-56k-fail.html

after you see the pics and video.. I STRONGLY suggest you read from pg19 and on..

the conversation between me and "justmyride" or as it is now "2dwild" I guess some people really do need identity changes now a days specially when so many people are mad at you...




P.S. Be careful not to get strafed.... I talk from experience...http://media.bausauto.com/random/strafing.GIF
