Default Unbelievable....

My buddy just bought a 2002 WS6 with 30k miles on it for under $8k from a salvage auction. It has less than $1500 in damage...maybe way less. They totaled the car when ALL it needs is a D/S quarter panel. I still cant believe that the car was totaled. Its in near perfect condition except for the quarter. It is also buckled further tward the front of the panel, but it may be able to be pushed out and need no paint.

Ya the guy who bought this one had another that was salvaged. It caught fire and burnt to the ground and insurance paid. Not retail, but like 60% of it I believe

yep, you can full cover a salvage vehicle, insurance compnay don't care, they will cover anything with enough $$$. Just keep in mind that with that title you are at risk of not getting even close to what you paid for it if another insurnace company totals it and its HIS fault!

Keep that in mind. Salvage stuff is hit or miss.

He might have a good one there!
