      It's probably an unsellable car now. But that is only meaning that he made every day, night, sweatdrop, tear and dollar worth it.

      I mean, it is possible the G really was babied and it really was an accident like at the grocery store or something. When my car got backed into a while back (right rear quarter) I was going to try to buy it back from insurance if it was cheap enough if they did total it out because otherwise it drives perfectly fine. I definitely would have tried to sell it later down the road just so I could get a car I could get full coverage on again but luckily it was repairable.

    G37 has frame damage. I can't believe he's driving it around in that state. If you do that, your alignment will shred tires.
    Also pro tip from someone who only buys cars from the auction, whenever a car vs car collision happens, you're almost always going to have frame damage because these cars weigh a ton and that'll do a lot of unseen damage. Frame work damage cost is anywhere between 12 and 5k depending on how heavy your vehicle is.

      He bought the car wrecked and never registered it hence “still clean title” but assuming the previous owner got cashed out by insurance and sold it to this guy, the title will automatically be updated by the DMV when it gets registered again by whoever buys it
