    I'm looking at a 2006 GP GXP. It's $8800 obo in Omega Red. 2 rims are scuffed so I'd have to get them repaired professionally. Also has a few minor dings, a pin sized hole in the rear bumper, tiny ding on the lip of the hood, and the front bumper needs adjusted. The car has new brakes, and 97k on a salvage title. All options except navigation. What would ya'all offer for this? I'm thinking $7000

    Will banks around you even give loans on salvage titles?

    I bet you can find a non salvage title car with close to the same miles for the same price if you search around.

    Yalls bank actually ask about the car? Am I the only one that just makes a phone call and 15 minutes later money is put in my account?

    Personally I'm not a fan of salvage titles. Even if it was a stolen car. I'd look elsewhere.
