    It looked like it was just a slight accident.. Doesn't affect the way the car drives.

    if its salvaged you can not legaly drive it on the road! untill it gets inspected by the state! if you are not a licenced rebuilder. you can not get it inspected!

    i bought a car that had been a salvage and was rebuilt, car got totaled while i had it. still got more than the car was worth from insurance. but i've heard it's a huge hassle to have a car rebuilt.

    ^^ I knew that part, and I know someone that can get a title rebuilt for me. I do believe it is already rebuilt, will that mean I still have to get it inspected?

    if its a georgia rebuilt title, your good to go. but if it says rebuilt- salvage you have a problem that means it has been totaled twice! yes there are cars that have been totaled twice! but if its out of state rebuilt you might have to have it inspected in georgia also to transfer it to a georgia title.

    I have a friend that almost all the cars that he has owned has been wrecked. All his Integras, his G35. Come to think of it, the vehicle that he owns that has not been wrecked (yet) is the Camry that hs wife drives.

    I don't know about GA, but in SC we can only get liability coverage on Rebuilt Salvage vehicles.

    Depends on how much you get it for and how much of a profit you plan to turn. There are people that will buy cars with a salvaged history. Of course your market will be reduced but they are still out there.

    just make sure that it hasn't been pulled out of a lake or set on fire.
