Your first clue is that this says "Salvage Certificate". I wouldn't touch it.

Car is a salvage. That mean the insurance company totaled it out and someone bought it. It would not carry warranty. marked titles should go for at least 20k down IMO. to me that is a 32-36k car.

I would take you 46k and buy and non-salvaged 2007 or spend about 52k and get an 08.

the only time I would ever consider a salvage is say all I could afford was 36k or something and I had to have a z06. If you ever try to sell the car it can be a huge pain.

The Korvette has many komputers onboard, they don't take kindly to being under water. It kould be an elektrikal nightmare for you. Take a pass.

It looks really nice, have someone look at it for you. It seems not to be damaged at all.

There's got to be someone here on the Forum from Brooklyn, ny. that can look at this car for our fellow member, I'm in Florida or I would be happy to.

It states they allow & welcome inspections prior to end of bidding, there's 18 days left.

This post has to be a joke because nobody with half a brain would buy that car for anything north of 25k at most.

This is not a normal title. This title is one issued after a car has been damaged such as being in an accident. The insurance company has
paid the original owner in full and scrapped the car. The car looks good but there must have been a valid reason for it being scrapped.

I think some of you are being a little hard on him. I am assuming the original poster is from Germany and is looking for answers on something he is not sure of. How many of you can go to a German based forum and ask a question in German where every thing is spelled correctly?
