I'm looking to look up a car at Car Fax.com but don't have the resources to purchase a account. Looking for anyone with access to a unlimited car fax and lend me a hand.

Yea I know its a salvage title but I planned on restoring it and driving around a daily ride.. I had a tiburon a few months ago but got ran off the road by a disel and been wanting one since. Insurance dicked me over and just paid the car off since it was such a new ride.

Well, I have to admit that I don't see a salvage title as a big problem under 3 conditions (all 3 must be met).
If the car is OK structurally , you can title it, and you intend to drive it until the wheels fall off, then I would say that a salvage title is OK if the price is SIGNIFICANTLY discounted below book value for a car with a good title.
In several states, theft recoveries are granted salvage titles. So that would be an instance where the title wouldn't be a big deal if you weren't going to resell.
- You can get a title that will allow you to drive this in your state.
- If it was totalled for structural damage, that the repairs were well done as verified by a qualified professional.
- You don't EVER intend to sell it.

Yea the car is going for 8,000. I don't intend to sell the car either until i'm ready to get a 350z or SUV after I've finished school and one year into my career.
