05 Evo Mr rebuilt title resale vaue question
Hi im looking at a black 05 Evo Mr with 147k chassis and claimed 66k motor but no paper to prove it. It has a rebuilt title from a previous accident. It is running and driving good. Only needs a new 02 sensor, front end repained (due to clear coat peeling) and possibly tires soon. Ive bought and sold many cars but never any with a rebuilt title. Im located in VA. What would you all value this car at?
Thanks in advance

Not all rebuilt are horrible. Mine had the interior stolen 2-3 years ago and bought it back from insurance company when it was "totaled". Had to get some new seats installed to get the title rebuilt. Besides that I've been the owner for the last 5 years and I know that mechanically there is nothing wrong with it. But in this case I think the value would drop some still but I wouldn't intend to ever sell it.

Thanks for all the input guys
Also if I was to trade in a vehicle like this to a dealership down the road, would they give me the same value for it as what you all are saying or less?

i dont think a dealership would even bother buying your car if it had a re-built title, as all have said already, if you plan on keeping the car forever and know exactly what accident it was in and what was damaged, otherwise I wouldn't bother with a re-built title. The only way I'd look at a peson selling a re-built title was if it was exactly the type of car I was looking for, car fax in hand and could get the price down even further.

I had a rebuilt title 350z. Car was great, performed like a charm never had a single problem for 2 years. Although listen to these guys, stay away from it, when you look to sell itll be the biggest pain to sell. Too many lowballs. Stay away.
