Looks like an issue with the title? Might still be worth it.
another ebay car. He does list some needed maintenance including clutch bearing.
No reserve auction. Be sure to ask about Hurricane Sandy.

So long as you get a good inspection of it, I wouldn't be too worried.
May be a salvage title. He says it drives straight but better check it out real close. Have the alignment checked. Also needs a clutch.
It is a salvage title, from 2008.. the free linked report confirms it. I wouldn't touch it with a 10,000 foot pole.

My car is a salvage. Fixed it myself. If it's done right, no worries. Having worked at a auction broker for seven months, I'll tell you, I've seen some really wrecked cars that are still clean title.
All that salvage means is that the insurance company made a full payout on it, it's no gauge to how bad a car was damaged. Conversely, I've seen cars be salvaged over very minor accidents, like my bosses Jetta. All he changed was the headlight, fender, bumper cover.
Moral: if it's been in an accident, clean title or salvage is pretty meaningless, in retrospect.

I have a dumb question. What is a car like this worth, considering the Title is worthless?
Salvage car is always harder to sell than clear titled car. Regardless of the real damage done to the car. So, always keep that in mind, unless you plan to drive the car until it stops running and then send it over to the junk yard.
Also, extensive suspension damage may have caused damage to the frame as well, which is why the insurance co might have decided to write it off. So an extensive inspection by a qualified mechanic is in order for a car like this.
