If it was a clear title I would say most def a good deal. Since its salvage you need to ask yourself how long you want to keep it. You will have a hard time selling it for what its worth down the road. On the otherhand if your willing to drive it till say 200K miles, then get it. Cause at that point it won't be worth much anyway.

He is doing the classic ebay seller crap. "JDM" this, "JDM" that. Plus the, "this is honestly of the nicest si's u will ever see out in the streets". It's BS. Seems like the kind of seller that's put a bunch of junk on the car, probably not very well done either. jmo...
