Buying a salvaged car?

[Thrawn]

My buddy totaled his car, but I want to purchase it and part it out. His insurance company is giving him cash, but what happens to the car? Is it still his? What's the deal with a salvage title?

the insurance company keeps it and autions it off. Your friend has the option of keeping the car I thinkl but no money. You can buy it off of him if you think its worth it.

he'll have the option to buy the car from the insurance company. salvage title is just that, salvage. you can still drive / etc it, but there won't be a warranty anymore (more than likely) and it's worth (maybe) 60% of a non-salvage is woth

Just be sure it wasn't a front end collision. Audi engines don't do well in front end collisions.
