Here's one for ya

friend of mine bought a salvaged 97 mark 8 with 68K on it from an insurance company, damaged in the same storm as the vehicle above.

he paid 550.00 for it.

So the guy with this CE on craigslist probably paid 6-700 dollars and wants EIGHTY FIVE HUNDRED for "washing a title out of state".

Gimme a break..

i wouldnt pay 2500.i dont care if it was a ferrari.with a rebuilt title it aint worth crap.
 
why would it have been totaled for no damage?? i bet it was filled with water. i wouldnt pay a dime for it, that salvage title makes it worth crap.
 
I'd be worried about all the little electronic gremlins that you'd miss during the test drive.
 
why would it have been totaled for no damage?? .

in the case of my friends car... it was here in houston during IKE.
they left the car here, it got broken into AFTER the hurricane came..and before the people that owned it came back we had a bad rain storm.

The radio shorted out, and the air ride gave errrors.
When he talked to his insurance company about getting an adjuster to come look at it.
The insurance company told him no need, we aren't estimating IKE cars..and they simply TOTALED IT.

broken window, radio not working, air ride error = TOTALLED.

The car is a creme puff.
my friend replaced the radio and hasn't had a lick of trouble out of it.
The air ride error is because the vent solenoid is stuck closed and the car cant vent.

he's put nearly 10K miles on it since purchase.
