there shoudl be no reason for the car to have a salvaged title unless it has more than $60k in damages...

it doesnt make any sense to buy it
now, if it was selling for $100k, then i would say its a buy...
anyways best of luck to you and your decision

As fasr as I know, that one does not have a salvage title. The GT wrecked in the movie was a previously wrecked car on a salvage title.

if u have ur mind already set then why not just buy it?

i find it a bit hard to believe to spend this kind of money for the hassle u're gonna go through. but if u think it's gonna be a cool project then u're onto different thing i think... however, i don't think common sense will support what u said because bottom line is A WRECKED CAR IS A WRECKED CAR, period.

It is made of carbon fiber including the hub which prob. has stress cracks from that hit.

This will not be as easy to fix compared to a steel or alum. chassis car.

STAY AWAY FROM IT PLS.

It will prob also take Porsche like 3-6 mos to get the replacement parts for a car like this.
