does a vechicle price differ much than the kelly blue book price if its been wrecked and totally rebuilt?

Answer 1

A vehicle price will be (or should be) much lower than the blue book value, if it has been wrecked an rebuilt.

Anyone buying a used car should do a carfax check on the vehicle to make sure it hasn;t been wrecked in the past.

Answer 2

kelley bb is just a ballpark. would you buy a rebuilt shelby cobra, even if it was salvaged?
i once had a man offer me 400 for my old 5.0. i had just invested a fortune in stereo and mech.parts. 400 was like the mid level, i think. anyway it had new weatherstripping etc. gawd i was mad, solid 13 car by guesstimate with .6 for reaction.
if you love it, there are few price scales that'll stear you off.

Answer 3

yes it will differ a lot ,if its one of the ones that sneaked by and didn't get added to car fax report ,it wont show anything on it,but if its listed on there as a salvaged title ,it will knock a 1/3 off the price to start with and the insurance also wont give as good of coverage on it as they would a regular vehicle, but it does affect it,good luck ,i hope this help,s.

Answer 4

If it's got a salvage title, the price drops dramatically. If you're going for trade in, the dealer is going to run a carfax - and believe me, they're going to use any means possible to drop what they're paying you.

Answer 5

anyone with a good eye can tell if a car is wrecked but if it does not have a salvage title and no one pulls a carfax report then yes it is worth retail value

Answer 6

Excuse me?
There is an old saying (there is an azzhole for every seat, the trick is to find the right azzhole, there are plenty of seats)
Just ask any used car salesman that has passed one off for big dollars.
