It's really not the point on how much damage. Salvage is the title. In this case it probably means the repair cost more than the insurance wanted to pay and so they totalled the car out. The someone bought it for a song and fixed it up. The problem is the Salvage title because the value will drop fast and resale will be really hard. With a salvage title that car isn't worth more than 80-85k IMO.

I'm not sure about this, but I think that salvage cars are harder to insure too. Someone else may know more about that than I.

Personally I wouldn't buy it. The only way I'd buy a salvage car is if I was going to use it as a track car, or I was going to never sell it because the value will drop like a rock.
