Find out how the car was totaled if it has a salvage title or why it has a salvage title. A car usually gets a salvage title when it has damage that is either too severe or will cost too much to fix in respect to the value of the car. Personally, I wouldnt touch it. </P>

yep, it was either totalled or it was an insurance company paid it off after it was stolen, once recovered it is sold for salvage. I don't believe you can borrow money on a salvage title, at least not here in GA, you can't get liens registered on them. Keep that in mind, you may have to pay cash for it.

Personal loans work, rather than auto loans.
