    is this salvage vert worth the price???



    its seems clean on the outside but i have def been fooled by pictures before... and i dont want to drive all the way up there for nothing. i wmailed him and asked about literally everything. top, brakes, why its salved, vin, if he had pics from accident if it was from accident, literally everything. waiting for a response still but just wondering what i should pay for a vert with a salvaged title. thanks guys. just trying to find another clean e30. thanks again guys i really appreciate the help

    It doesn't look bad but I would definitely ask for way more detailed pictures. I wouldn't drive up from SB unless it was absolutely the one.

      Looks very nice, but like phresh said get more detailed photos of the engine bay and interior.

        well im going to try to get him to lower the price significantlly because i am driving from so far and because it has a salvage title. i might go to berklee tomorrow to visit a friend so i figured why not kill 2 birds with one stone.

          I have a salvage title vert but was never in an accident. How you might ask? They guy before me blew the engine, reported it to insurance and insurance totaled it and proceeded to put in new motor. Now I have a lower mileage motor and a clean car. Salvage wasn't too big of an issue for me this time. Carfax checked out too.

                          i was thinking the same.... but you cant really tell. the front almost looks stock with a lip but it you look at it closer it starts to look like an mtech. sides im not sure. still pretty new in the e30 game and trying to research as much as i can.
