I just bought this one for 1750. It's got 81xxx miles all I need is to replace the bumpers and paint and taillights. It purrs when I drive it. Cheaper than my Honda Civic ep3 k24a2 swap.

What do you mean people like me?! I own a dealership and flip cars. I was just saying there are good deals out there. There is nothing wrong with owning a honda and swapping in legit engines. I saw this and for it for a good deal. The damage is minimal and I plan on keeping it. No one needs stupid and unfounded comments like yours.

Yup. Been doing it for years. Obviously it's been good. In Utah it's possible. A lot cheaper than your Z and no one will be able to tell the difference.

Nothing wrong with a salvage titled car if you get all the certifications for the damages that were fixed.

With that being said,

most insurance companies won't insure salvaged cars..... bet he doesn't tell that to his customers

going on a limb here, going to say that he just fixes the visible damage..... and it isn't certified

guy at work has a second lien on his salvage title truck so
no problem with insurance- full coverage.
got later hail damage fixed with a free paint job

further was researching a 3600 mile 2014 Ridgeline
with salvage title but chickened out only because it was 1300 miles away
in Phoenix. Bank said no problem but could only loan half its book price.

well you buddy is an idiot for having 2 loans on a salvaged car, must come from the shallow end of the gene pool.

and if you noticed i said most will not cover it, i am sure the shady $39 dollars a month places might

awesome score danito. makes me feel like a fool
for paying retail for a depreciating asset, a guaranteed
losing proposition every time.

wouldn''t even need to blow more cash on full
coverage insurance with it that cheep if you were
driving on the street
