I personally wouldn't because for like maybe $8k more you'll get a brand new one with no issues and it'll be clean titled so you'll never have issues with trying to sell it AND if there is a problem with the car it's self then you're not gonna e wondering what the hell it is and you won't be blaming it on the fact that it's salvage and the car will probably last you a lot longer too. From self experience on buying salvage and used cars I'd say save your money and get a new one haha though the miles are nice and low. I have 113,400k miles on mine, clean title, 40th anniversary, weather and sport package and I still owe $18k+. So idk man you analyze it.

It has no warranty whatsoever after crash.
Bent frame?
Good luck with future resell value.
For the price, you can can find low mileage 09-12 around same price with clean title
More insurance cost for salvage vehicle
Any hidden issues? Refer to no warranty

I see. cant find touring version for that price

You're going to be over paying. The car was declared total loss. Was the hit on the front? You're going to have engine trouble for sure sooner than later.

Engine rebuilt? Begs the question, is the car going to handle any mods you may plan on doing? Furthermore, how long will it go before it needs to be majorly fixed.

No warranties? You're walking into a mine field.

Feel like selling it? You're going to have to rip your self off if you want to resell it.

Brother, this is NOT what you want to hear, I know that! And I'm sorry but honestly these people are really trying to help ya out. Don't do it, you can get a whole lot better for just a little more or a just a little older of a model. That's it. Much love man. May the force be with you!

It will be a sellers nightmare when the time comes & quite possibly an owners nightmare as well during the ownership period. Unless I was building a dedicated race car, I would never buy a salvaged/ rebuilt titled vehicle.
$.02

YMMV

Did a quick Google search of the "Before" photos...

...the passenger fender seems to be poorly put on..

...I would stay away...

Don't buy a wrecked car. Loss like from your info you already have a 2010. Why want a newer model? I had a 2011 and bought a 2014 and really had buyers remorse. It wasn't worth it in the long run for me.

UNKNOWN_370 · 02-27-2016, 08:56 AM

Go buy that 328I, that Ford Mustang and whatever else you think is better than a Z n stop playing games.

SouthArk370Z · 02-27-2016, 10:13 AM

Unless you have the resources (time, cash, tools, workspace, knowledge, &c) to repair all the "little" things that are probably still wrong with the car and those that are likely to crop up in a salvaged vehicle, pass on it. Save up until you can afford one in much better shape.

UNKNOWN_370 · 02-27-2016, 12:07 PM

Playing along with this... I'll say, you can get a clean carfax 2010 or 2011 fair mileage Z for the SAME money...
