Okay guys and gals, I seek your wisdom and advice. What you say will help me determine if this car is worth the 60+ mile drive to take a look at it. My question is more about the dreaded salvage title the car has. Second owner claims the title is due to a theft recovery. He said the radio, CD changer were removed and the dash damaged, driver window smashed. Do all these things merit a salvage title? I thought it would have to be something like engine removed and other expensive things stolen or damaged to deem it a salvage title. Is there anyway that I can find out it was not due to a collision? If it's just theft, I don't mind it that much. It's just that I don't want a car that has been in an accident. So, my main question: Is it okay to seriously consider a salvage-titled car that was a theft recovery?

The car is a 1995 850 GLT. Owner said the condition of the inside and outside is excellent. Price is well under $5000. Car drives well and owner needs to seel out due to relocation. Should I be suspicious? Is this an appropriate price? Too high, too low (suspicion alert?)? I may look at the car tomorrow. Thanks so much!
