Default is this an ok deal 97crv

please help me out, looking at a 97crv to buy.

auto trans
200,000 mi (runs and drives very good, good cond.)
repaired salvage title (right front fender was damaged)

used car dealer wants $3600, seems a bit high, what do you guys think?

also, does it seem fishy that its a repaired salvage title when only the front fender was damaged? orange peeled paint is also preasant on half the hood and door (bad fade job)

With the salvaged titlethe value of this thing drops!
you dont know how bad it was hit, to have been totaled-out.
Also it will be a pain in the *** to resale with a salvaged title.
