when is it worth it? Salvage title question When is it worth it to buy salvage title? Was looking at a camaro:
115,000 MILES
CONVERTIBLE WORKS
AC WORKS
RADIO WORKS
NEW POWER STEERING PUMP
SALVAGE TITTLE DO TO A HIT CURVE NEVER BEEN IN A MAJOR ACCIDENT"
Wonder how low of a price is a good deal for this? The tranny went out on it he says so any info is helpful. I just really want a 98-02 z28/ss for 4-5000 beginning

That's an awfully low budget for a decent F-body. I know you probably want one real bad, but if at all possible, save up a bit more until you get to about $8,000. At that point you can look for cars selling for about $9,500 or even $10,000 in the ads. Those are asking prices, and with your cash in hand you could possibly get one for $8,000. Whichever direction you go, best of luck! I just hate to see you buy a 'money pit' for a car and throw out your hard earned $$ for constant repairs. It wouldn't be a very good ownership experience.

Go to any salvage auto auction and see the prices (here for example)though some of them are overpriced but at least you know what is high and what is low. I personally wouldn't buy a car with salvage title if it wasn't saving me at least 70% off the retail value of the car.
