Have a nice ride for the summer! Yeah right

I thought this was kind of funny. They description says have a nice ride for the summer! I think the cost to fix it would far extend pass the money you save on purchasing it. At least the driver airbag finally deployed on someone's crossfire!

He says it has a clean title, but has no warranty.

How can that be? It has to be a salvage title, otherwise it would still be under warranty.

The damage on this car is simmular to what happened when my daughter got hit 10 days ago. The salvage door was black w/airbag intact. Unfortunately the window had to be changed because the door came off a coupe.

door $900
window $220
resew pad $150
labor $500 incl buffing after paint and repair of scratch and ding on door
Total cost $1,770

There was no other damage to my car. Incidentally, the first salvage yard had a door matching the color of the damaged car noted in the above article.

I sent this guy a message asking this question. Here's his answer.

Hi!
I got the car from Insurance Company, it was sold in as is condition, but it does have clean title, they did not issue salvage for it. As far as the warranty, I did not check on it, you can if you want to, just use this VIN on my add, it might still be under warranty, I didn't put warranty in the add, just to be safe. I will check on it some more today though. Thanks for your question.
