The headlights are not stock, does not mean it is a different car. He just got a set of sleek lights when he painted his car.

That is some pretty fucked up vandalism. And done by another Mazda guy?

You ever wonder why people wrap a $1.98 made in a sweatshop in China junky steering wheel cover around a wheel that cost thousands to design and feels like true heaven in your hand?

That key job looks suspect. Amazing how they scratched all areas of the body to make sure insurance had to repaint the whole car. Looks like an insurance scam to get a cheap paint job and flip the car to me. Anyway, I've never met a person in my life who didn't like FD's

Totally agreed.

That sucks that they did it to a '95 R2, though

Salvage title is soo over rated.

The car could have a gash on the interior panel, but because of how expensive it is to fix, insurance wont pay up and just total it. Boom salvage title on an otherwise perfect car.

Stupid.

Unless the car was in a:
Flood
Fire
Stolen and stripped or something of equal disaster salvage titles are worth just as much IMO.

Scratched paint, is not worthy of being deemed as salvage...

Insurance company recently tried to pull that shiet on me when the 7 just needed a small paint job. Fought back and got them to not total it. Salvage title does mean you can't sell it to a dealer though.
