Way too much for a salvage title car... You do know you can't take an auto loan on a salvage car, right?

^ That's smart... And if it gets stolen? Thennnnnnnn WHAT? You can only carry liability on a salvage car man, you'll take a complete loss, and be paying off that $14,000 for however long you had to make it, to make the payments affordable.

Be smart here man, don't do something stupid.

There are better CLEAN TITLE caRs for $14,000.

You're going to have to drive a bit to get an R, or wait a while. I waited for literally, about a year for one to come up for sale near me, I drove 4 hours out of town to pick heR up. Which is rather mild considering the distance most Type-R owners travel to get their Type-Rs.

why did you make another thread....

especially for one w/ a salvage title....

you asked for a low mileage R and I gave you a link to one of the cleanest Unmolested 97's out there.....

I sold my 2000 s2k to someone from NY.... He flew directly into Wilm. NC, I picked him up from the airport and then he drove the car back.....

You should be able to fly pretty much anywhere on the east coast for less than $250 and pick something up and drive it back....

That is part of the fun of it....

I have this feeling you should pass on an ITR for now. If you're in the NY/NJ area, you're in for really rude awakening if you become an owner. NJ owners have been chased and carjacked at gun point or at the very least, they've had repeated theft attempts. One NJ R ended up at the bottom of a lake. You really need to be fully aware of the high risks and financial burden an ITR will be for you. The insurance alone in the greater NYC area will prolly kill you. Nickel and three cents change....

14k is definitely too much for salvage title. Like others stated, you can find a clean title Type R for the same price.

Good luck
