arnt they like 19 grand brand new?

I guess it really depends on how messed up it is, and if you can deal with fixing the rest of the stuff.

its soposed to be in driving condition and nothing needing fixing. but i hate to have to pay some one my pay checks for a couple of years.plus i go back and forth on how realible them cars and parts are prolly high.i love my civic because its payed off too. and i can do whatever. the test drive can only tell. it should be down by friday to take out.

1) It is just a neon

2) Think about what you could do to your civic/crx w/ $10,000.

Nuff said.

most of the time people buy project cars that are wrecked but salvagable and get in way over their heads.. Doing light body work is easy, trying to rebend unitie vehicles is a bitch.. why do u think insurance paid body shops make so much money?

youll never get a loan from a real bank with the salvage title. you would have to do a personal loan which if you live with your parrents still isnt going to happen. I wouldnet get it for that fact, and that if you want to sell it or trade it in isnt going to be easy with that title.

Also, check insurance rates. It's harder to get insurance on a salvage title, and I've heard that rates on the srt4 are high anyway.
