I got mine salvaged with 8 miles on it. Price sticker on window... seats still wrapped in plastic all because the rims/tires were stolen.

24k

Got a used set of rims. Powder coated them Bronze new all season tires and I ended with a brank new Type R for less than 30k
I didn't know dealers could sell salvaged title.

Haha! That’s the craziest thing I’ve ever seen. Totaled because the wheels were stolen? you got a great deal, sir. But it’s also not that easy to insure “salvaged” vehicles. Maybe easier if you explain the situation.

It was totaled by the insurance.
Ah ok makes sense, you bought it directly from Copart. Mine came from auction as well as a salvage title.

Yeah I was looking for a new one and this came up couldnt pass it up
I don't blame you, best way to save money that's why I did the same. I almost had another one just for parts lol Was a non repairable title no damage either.

They discount it big time, but skyrocket the fees so ended up being slightly better than average.

In Cali there are regulations for doc fees. $85 is the maximum they can charge on a new car.

Salvage way less value and harder to sell but I would’ve bought that car and turned into track rat!

I'm sure there're other "fees" they can add on to "adjust" the price. If you look at my quote, there're three different fees. They advertise a super low price, but you'll walk out with just an average deal.

Other fee is just CA tires fees $6 each . plates. title transfer $15 . If used another 58.5 but that's it. All governmental and it's listed on the contract.

I got ripped off on doc fees from some out of state purchase as well . 799 something

But if you let them add GAP insurance , extended warranty , lo jacks etc . that's on you .

CA regulates these items heavier from what I can tell

P.S I'm an independent dealer in CA .
