This looks like an R-Package. I called the guy and he said that it had all the spoilers and nothing else, like no power steering. Either it's not an R-package or he does not know what he has. It's a great price, but he said that it has a salvage title. :(

Somebody clear me up on this... what happens when you buy a car with a salvage title? Does it have to have some kind of inspection before it's road worthy again or what?
You'll have trouble getting a loan for it (especially in this climate), you'll pay more to insure it, and you'll have a hell of a time unloading it if you ever sell it.Quote:

I'd throw a low ball offer at him. The worst that could happen is that he says no.
You should have an experienced mechanic and a body shop guy look at it. If the rebuild is done right it'll be fine but there are WAY too many ways to cut corners and slash costs when doing the repair half assed.
I pay cash ;)Quote:

Did he know why it had a salvage title?
No. I immediately lost interest.Quote:
