Walk away.
1 You aren't saving NEAR enough money.
That car does $20,-22k at the auction if its in 1 piece.
So, unless you can get the car for half that,it's really not worth it.
Second, salvage cars are rarely put back together correctly.
Who knows what will go wrong, and oh by the way,you have NO WARRANTY.
Just step up and pay real money like all the other lemmings, or save your cash and buy a Yaris.

#230 of 236 salvage title, etc by sharond444

My 2002 Buick Rendezvous has a salvage title. Plus it has an engine oil leak that Lucas Stop Leak has worked on. Have not had to add any oil since using Lucas.
 
KBB says worth about $4200 in "fair" condition. With the 2 factors listed above, what would a fair price be?. I have two people who want to buy it and I don't know what to ask for it.
 
Thanks!

First of all, you cannot use KBB or ANY other yardstick for a salvage title car.
 
Private party, the Buick is probably a $1000 car,if that.

I had no idea an M6 was so unstable it could be blown off the road by a passing semi in the rain. Scary for sure.
