Thinking of buying a salvage/rebuilt title car? Watch this video 

Thanks for not scaring me out of buying a rebuilt title car lol. Vary informative thank you.

And now I'm convinced my wife is cheating. Those walls are overworked

Excellent Video my man. Great info. My only disagreement is at the end of the video you say a car can sit for 2-3 years and could be good because of low miles, however a car sitting that long is not good as it will dry up. Water pump, oil, etc..... If you have the knowledge to determine if a car is in okay shape sitting that long, then I would agree but most don't.

My thing was to stay away from types of damage that effects alignment. You just want the car to run straight.

I am grateful for this video. I learned valuable lessons watching this video. I came on RU-vid because somebody has a Toyota Camry with a rebuilt title and I told them I had no knowledge or understanding about rebuilt titles. I would check out a little longer all used vehicles if I was to buy one. Thanks so very much for sharing helpful information via RU-vid. God bless you for informing people valuable information.

sometimes a rebuilt can have lot of new parts!

Super informative video. You have convinced me to be open minded when considering my next car purchase.

This was beyond helpful. Thank you so much for your care in this video. Extremely well thought out and exceptionally clear points.

Great video! Do you find it more expensive to insurance a rebuilt car?

Holy shit guys this video is a lot better at x1.5 play speed lmao. Next videos I'll try to edit or talk faster lmao.

Very good information, more than other salvage videos I’ve seen so far. Thanks!

Watch at 1.5x...u welcome

I want to buy a 2013-2015 FRS/BRZ either clean or salvage title (most likely salvage) anything in particular I should look out for??

Does the insurance goes up ? do I have to inspect the vehicle again every year? if buy a rebuilt title?

Thanks for explaining what rebuilt title actually means and that it is not a death sentence.

Thank you, very informative!

Very good video William...I would like to request if you would talk about the registration process of auction salvage cars. If you would please take a look at my situation when given a chance....I'm glad I found this video....I got a car at an auction...Salvage title, runs and drives and it was only very minimal work needed done to get it at it's best condition...cost of a full maintenance service....and lots of elbow grease...labor of love was free as I did everything. To register the car, according to DMV on line base on cars VIN #...I was really surprised and couldn't believe the cost $1098 !!! Are you kidding me ? $1098 ? for a Silver 2003 Mini Cooper Base Hatchback 1.6L Is this for real ? William, this is quite an expensive learning curve for me. I felt like I was taken advantage off by the auction place...they knew I was new at this. I feel like sueing them. There was no red flag or a note of caution like for example "If you plan on running this car...call us first" Or "For Parts Only" Who really checks VIN #'s ? They should have a designated VIN number checker in all the cars they auction off and any possible questionable information issues that the car has should be noted before auctioning off to all would be bidders Do you think I have a case ? Anyway, Is there any way around it ? For the cost of the registration to go down ? Please let me know ...I would really appreciate it Thank you, John

found a really clean evo x gsr 2011 with 45k miles, went and saw it today. makes good power (415) has bilstein suspension and many other good parts. Absolutely love it, but am reluctant about the rebuilt title. A/C doesn't work either, owner told me he has a stack of docs from the accident of 1st owner, he's driven it for 10k miles... wants 24k with wheels (TE37SLs), im not sure what to do.

Somebody told me to stay away from rebuilt vehicles because they “make it just pass the inspections by the minimum standards” so i don’t know anymore.

I’m looking at a 2018 WRX STi Impreza for $23k. It was totaled in an accident but fully rebuilt and fixed. It had 2 minion accidents prior to the total’d accident. The man says it was fully rebuilt and fixed and runs amazing and is only trying to get rid of it because he can’t afford it anymore.

In-depth and shows example to spot, this will greatly help me when checking out this rebuilt car. Thank you!

My Brz should of had a rebuilt title, Rear ended and the damage was 17k Never ended up on the carfax or anything. Clean title :o

In my experience don't buy a salvage title. First it's hard to sell when you want sell. Second there are more cons than pro. These new cars are built to be totaled when they get into accidents not to be fixed.

EXTREMELY informative video man thanks a lot.

I bought a 2000 honda prelude today, and when I drove it home and stopped I saw white smoke flowing over the hood, I dont know what that could mean, and also my check engine light is on.

I’m not a car guy or nothing...but that’s a funny looking Porsche 911 man...I think you got ripped off

What if you plan to buy a totaled or salvage title car just to use it on track?

What is the best not auction place to buy salvage repairable cars?

Wanting to buy a salvage Acura RSX but having mix feelings

Why do you keep lumping rebuilt and salvage together? They are completely different.

Looking at a 2008 Toyota FJ Cruiser, 214k miles, salvage title. Everything looks clean, has steel bumper, Bilstein 2.5" lifted suspension, big tires, upgraded stereo, light bar, LED front and tail lights. Wants $14.5k. Thoughts?

Hi there! We are going to look at a 2014 Honda Civic that was totaled February of 2022. I know this year car prices have been super inflated. Do you know of that would have affected this cars value when it was totaled out? The dealer said he does have before and after phots that we can look at. But I was just wondering if maybe with car prices being so high, if that would increase the value, therefore indicating that the car was messed up pretty bad. Thanks so much!!

Smart man. I have a question I found a dodge charge 2018 SXT for 12k it was totaled before but now it’s rebuilt, I saw pictures of the car before it was repaired the whole front end was smashed in but I would say that it was In front of the engine because the vin right by the engine matches the window vin. But under the hood I see some welding and what kinda looks like bondo on the front end. Would you buy it for 12k?

i don't think i will get a response but theirs a beautiful q50 im looking at 58,000 miles 2017 and they're only looking 17,000 should i go check it out first and ask the owner what's it's been tbriugh fiest and everything

Hi William, I am looking at a 2018 Subaru WRX that was rebuilt. Can I send you pictures of the damages from the accident and see what your opinion is?

Would a good looking and working 2005 Honda Civic at 2600 be worth it? It was a blue rebuilt title supposedly

I found a brand new 2021 charger hellcat red eye with 7k miles that is for sale for 56k. owner says the BCM was replaced. What do you think?

can a car have significant damage if it was hit in the back? im planning on buying a rebuilt title. he has the carfax and it shows it was minor damage, and the owner has pictures. anything in the back i should look for to stay away from?

digging the attention to detail

Do you have to get a special inspection every year when you have a r title?

But how do you negotiate on the price at a Dealership? The 2015 infiniti Q50 i want has 148,000 miles and has a rebuilt title, they're asking $9,950, I want to offer $5,500 for the car.

Im currently checking out a 2012 subaru Impreza with 70k miles and they are asking 13k. It's got a rebuilt title and it's being sold from a reputable used car shop where I've gotten 2 cars before no problem. Is this a decent car or should I spend alittle more like 15-18k and just get a Toyota or Honda

A Porche 911 has the engine in the rear.

Yes

Thanks for the video bro great info 💯💯

Really helpful video, thank you!

I really like the analogy salute

Very helpful but why did you keep calling that BMW a 911?

Our Pontiac G6 gt ended up being a total loss since the accident damage was more than car worth since parts were so much and labor. It was only mechanic damage from a deer. We wanted to sell it prior to the deer accident but now that the title has the total loss/salvage title, how much could I sell it for now? Has 123000 miles now and runs great

Are receipts of the repair really necessary at the inspection site of the DMV for a rebuilt title car? I bought a rebuilt title car but I don't have any of the receipts and don't know where to get them.

is that the WD 3000gt?

I saw a 2015 Corvette Stingray Z51 1LT Coup INOP- Salvage title, 2 accidentes reported (don't have details), looks good in the pictures and selling for 26 grand and I'm I'm thinking about it 1 of 30

Very informative video as I’m in the looks of buying a salvaged 370z can I send you the picture I have and get your opinion?

ARE REBUILTS MORE SUSCEPTIBLE TO ODOMETER FRAUD? THE YEAR AND MILES DON'T REALLY CORRELATE, BUT THE CAR DOES LOOK REALLY CLEAN.

Thank you so much :)

I want to get a 911 as a project car but mannnnn...

I’m 17 and I want to get a camaro ss rebuilt title is it worth it for $33,500?

Good luck trying to get a salvaged/rebuilt vehicle insured. Real insurance companies won't insure such a liability.
