No way for a 2000 with 70K+ Miles you can get a clean one for about 12k-14k. They want 9k for that wrecked one.

IMO I wouldnt touch it

I agree w/ Vegas, no way would I touch it. You couldn't even give it to me. Notice the salvage title, its already been totaled by the insurance. Looking at the front end damage, you're easily looking at $15k plus damage, and both airbags need to be replaced. Looking at frame work too.

Definately not worth it. Too much work to get it back just to stock. It doesnt look like it was in that good of shape to begin with, plus it has 70k miles plus. Just keep looking and you will find one in good condition cheap enough.

Don't walk RUN away from this one. There are plenty of 98+ GSs out there. Keep looking. You'll know when you've found the real deal.
