I've been driving a salvage title Jeep Cherokee for 6 years now. Seems to look and run as good as any Jeep with a regular title. And no one has ever laughed at the fact I am driving it.


Unless you are extremely concerned about resale value, ignore the "Salvage" except to buy it right.
I bought a Jeep Blue booked at $6K for $2.3K it is still worth most that today.


this SRT will be worth at least $8K for several years. If for no other reason than it's relative rarity.


A good way to get more bang for the buck and put less investment at risk if you drive it like you stole it. The way an SRT6 should be driven anyways. :rolleyes:

How far is that from you, Franc?

Re: srt6 40k miles $9,800, Sedalia, MO
 

Three hours west of me.


How interested are you?

Re: srt6 40k miles $9,800, Sedalia, MO
 

Well... I'm gonna take a day or so and decide, Franc.

Hang in there Mark, that Machine Grey / Graphite SRT6 Roadster is out there somewhere waiting for you.

I have bought several salavage autos always check when wrecked, when repaired and how many miles since repair. Have had very good luck with them:D

With our cars, and depending on the auto insurance agent, it could have been a dent in the fender from a shopping cart.
Some ins. Only uses new parts only and will not use used parts, and new parts are not available.
We have all heard of ppl that had insurance agencies total a XFIRE for little damage.

Re: srt6 40k miles $9,800, Sedalia, MO
 

In some states, like Florida for instance, it is the law that 75% damge cost to Bluebook is a total. Not hard to do on a Mercedes badged car much less to run that cost up on a virtual exotic Karman built car with Mercedes parts.


Again, if I was in the market, I wouldn't worry about a well done salvage titled rebuilt.


In a year or so, My Grand daughter will be looking and I hope to find such a prize. She may well wreck it anyways but it will be one of the safest cars for her to drive. And besides, rumor has it no one has ever been knocked up in a Crossfire.:rolleyes:

Haha, not easily done, but not imposible. ;)
I seen another XFire srt with 80k miles for 8,000, some XFire sellers go by book value.

There is no room for two in the back of the coupe, much less the convertible. And the cup holder will interfere with any activity between the seats.


We have tried. Don't ask.:rolleyes:
I really don't want to talk about it.

Re: srt6 40k miles $9,800, Sedalia, MO
 

I know nothing about this particular car. I have owned a number of rebuilt cars over the years, however. They served me and those I later sold them to well.

Potential buyers should be aware some states will not license them. Some banks will not loan on them. Insurance companies will often not insure them. Most dealerships will not take them in on trade and, in this day of CarFax, they can be a monster to resell. A rule of thumb is a value at 50% of retail and an absolute must is seeing before repair pictures to help evaluate the extend of the damage and where it is you should should be checking.

If the plan is long term ownership and the seller is honest with the proper homework rebuilts can be a good value.

There is a will there is a way.
It is tricky but still doable.
