Hell NO!!!

Frame is **** most likely, Don't even waste your time.

Find another one with less damage.

Good Luck!

mark, that would probably take enough body work to make it not worth it. with the time and money put into it you could get another one in perfect condition.Cheers

Does the term "salvage title" mean anything to you?

Well, the HOOD looks to be in decent shape... seriously, with a salvage title, your warranty is most likely no good, you will not be able to find financing (should you need it), no dealer will ever take it in trade, and you will find it almost impossible to sell; if you do you will need to consider the sale price will need to be 35% to 50% below what a "normal" used one is selling for. So if you can buy this and fix it for about $15K total, you might be OK. good luck!

My guy is good so salvage does not scare me.....but some of the pics do. Warranty means little to me since the mods I do almost always voids them.....

I guess Infiniti's "self healing paint" is just a gimmick.

Did you get it? I honestly love buying salvage! You get a great deal, and if the car runs and operates fine what do you have to worry about if it was checked out well ahead of time? I have 2 now, and one bike....love em all!

If the frame is not damaged you should not have a problem repairing it. You are buying it cheap enough.

Salvage title is to protect the consumer from buying a lemon or a messed up car. However if you know what your getting and it is fixed properly,there is no problem.

I agree with you regardinng the warranty. In most cases the car is new enough the first three years that the warranty is not used anyway.

I love salvage cars a s well. I had a Lincoln LS for three years and resold it for a few thousand less making it a very good deal for me. I currently a have a 07 M35 that has a salvage title that I will post for sale here.
