As long as there are no accidents. How bad are the scratches?

 

Is it worth it I've found one in Pa for 8k with rear damage to the left quarter panel is it worth buying to fix ?

Yes. Always worth.


Just kidding. You gave literally no details other than the location and price. Damage to the rear panel is quite vague. If it's a 2008 CR with 5k miles on it and it got salvaged because someone stole it, then yes, you should buy it.

 

Salvaged due to impact? Hell no, horrible idea. Take the advice from someone who learned this the hard way (and even worse, knew better in the the first place).

 

Hey guys so after a very long time saving up I have around $11k that I wish to spend on buying an S2k (which I've been wanting for about 4 years now!) I was hoping if you guys could give me your opinions on a possible few
For example:

Says it needs a new top? Doesn’t look too bad in pictures.
The rest of the car looks clean.

Hey, so I'm in the market for an s2k in the hopefully not too distant future and I've come across this one a few times now.

http://orlando.craigslist.org/cto/4417586161.html

Summary:
03 silver with 76k miles. Damage to driver headlight, fender, door, and bumper.
Asking 6k
CoD. Only reason I'm entertaining it is that in here kentucky you and salvage and then rebuilt title a CoD car.

If this asking is grossly out of proportion, I've found my self to justify it in my head more just because of how much I want it, rather than looking at the pure value
But thanks for any help and suggestions.

 

That's one of the worst ones I've seen to date. And with no title, it seems sketchy to me even for parts.

 

It looks like it could have potential, but if it were my money I'd be extremely picky and wouldn't be offering full price on this one. If it truly needs a new soft top, I'd subtract ~ $1,000 from what you'd otherwise pay, and at $19,000 it is still more than I'd pay without needing a new top even if everything else checks out.

How much is it worth?
Maybe ~$17,000 tops if everything checks out without need for a replacement top
$16,000 at most if it only needs a new soft top, but everything else is good including no accident history or damage.

Also, I'd ask for full size pictures before making the drive.
