buying a Salvage Title 240?
 

Its a 96 240 5-spd that was wrecked on the front left, he says the frame is real straight and handles/drives great. The car is freshly painted with Silvia K rear bumper, driver seat, and wing. It has around 80k miles and it just looks very clean. Only turn off is the title. He wants 5k What do u guys think?

find out how hard it is in your state to get a salvage title registered.

so the front end is fixed?

what else is so good with this car that makes it worth 5k??

I am assuming that you mean it is fixed, 5k seems a little high, for a salvage title, although it only has 80k miles i would only pay 4k honestly. Check at the DMV before you agree as well cause it might be a big pain in the ass.

This is the stuff it has on it. He is lookin to trade for a civic which i have. Not sure if the deal is gonna go down i wanna see it in person first. I never messed with a salvage car b4, just not too sure if i want to give up my clean title car for a salvage. I want a 95+ 240 so bad though :mad:

Thats not bad, i would obviously see it in person, give it a test drive and talk to the DMV to see about salvage title, try n work him down to 4500 but me personally, i would prolly end up paying the 5k for it, look decent. Get it checked out mechanically if he allows it.

will do thanks for the input guys.

Post pics if / when you get it!
good luck

its not badd
 

i bought my 240 backin november of last year for 4700 it had a salvage title on it but the frame and everything else was fine but when were doing to sr swap during this summer we saw that the car was hit hard but not that bad. it is up to you if you are in a hurry or want to wait out for a clean 240 i have my 96 with sr and 5 speed conversion for sale it has a 3.5 inch full custom turbo back exhaust and has a 24x12x3.5 inch intercooler plus much more for sale on it the car has 54k and the motor has 32000 kilometers on it.

check and see about legalities before you give him an answer. i'd pay 4K max.
