WHAT's THE DIFFERENCE? Salvage and Salvage from Theft title?
Can anyone please clarify? I understand tha salvage from a major collision can be a risky buy, but what about the theft titled vehicles? Are these smart/safe buys?

the diff. between salvage and salvage theft titled cars, is IMO nothing really, just make sure why it was salvaged as a theft title? if it was something really minor like...the interior has been stolen then IMO it would be alright, but if not, like something serious then no, but how much though is the owner selling it for and what car is it? anyways the only problem though with the car if you do decide to buy it, is when you try to sell it cause of the "SALVAGE" but yeah its a safe buy, but i would double check the vehicle with carfax and anything else thats available

Carfax is useless unless someone reports an accident. I had an Si that was involved in 2 accidents and none of them were on Carfax.
