Only one person came to look at it...and the same one told me its sold. I wouldnt post up a car for sale if i knew it was a pos. I told the guy everything about the car. I was straight forward and honest with him.
I was in the car business for awhile, and the thing about salvage titles (or repaired/rebuilt)is that they're hit or miss (usually miss) with ever being the same again. IIRC (its been awhile) a vehicle with a repaired title has between 50% to 75% of its value in damage.
Because of this, the value of the car is greatly affected and not only is it worth less, but you usually have a hell of a time trying to sell it.
So to answer your question, yes, im going to let a repaired title stop me from even asking about it, even though I dont doubt your word on how clean it is.
