Also keep in mind, i think you can only get liabiltiy insurance on a salvage vehicle.

Even w salvage title its still clean, I had a 2001 S2000 a while back that had a 'salvage' title that was a effing joke, car wasnt hammered or smashed my any means whatsoever & was lightly tagged on driver rear quarter panel. I had it fixed(bought it hit) & repainted the entire car by a body shop thats been in business almost 30yrs...it was fixed properly & was one of the CLEANEST s2000's ive seen to this day(most of them are trashed out)...the case is different with a ISF as most F owners treat their car like a child as far as up keep, maintenance, etc. Personally I think its worth a look at especially with such low mileage if it was fixed properly...

Also ask for before/after pics, unless it was flood or theft recovery...

It's not true! I used to have salvage history car long time ago and I had full coverage insurance from Allstate.

If you can buy with cash, it might be a great deal. If you can't buy with cash, you'll have a hard time getting anyone to finance it.

You can run the carfax using the license plate (from one of the pics). It looks like the VIN is JTHBP262985001007.

However, as the saying goes: "if it's too good to be true...."
I'll sell you my car.

Fact of the matter is that I'm not in a rush to pull the trigger on another IS just yet. The plan is to wait and see what I think of the 3IS, and go from there. If it's hideous, I'll try to find a nicely kept F, which I'm kinda hoping to be the case. I'm in no hurry right now, because I still love my 350!

A simple no would have sufficed. Don't have to kick a man when he's down.
