o.k.
so after looking at vehix.com, autotrader.com, yahoo.cars.com, etc,
it looks like a running, complete, CLEANLY titled '05 gt with a stick can be had for as low as the mid $14's.
there are a few i have come across, which are SALVAGE titled, and from the pics, (at least) appear to be thoroughly fixed.
i am looking for a running, but guttable, s-197, as cheap as possible, to campaign as a camaro-mustang-challenge car, in the NASA race series.
the two salvages were "wrecked", so the insurance must have totaled them to be on a salvage title.
one was described as getting new bumpers, new front fenders, and headlight assemblies.
so, HERE IS THE QUESTION:
these 2 salvages are about $14K +/- a few hundred.
about 500 less than a cleanly titled one.
how much more do y'all think i should aim to haggle them down for the title problem.
of course i wont tell them i am transforming it into a race car, but instead play up my worries about getting raped on the price on the back-side, once i eventually decide to sell it
thoughts??
