Your dad is right. Its going to get wrecked and abused and since its fairly new its still worth a lot so he would be out a lot of money.































Get a beater for like $1,000 and drive it for a year or 2. Then when it gets damaged you either leave it like it is or junk it and you aren't out much money. When you learn how to drive better and take care of the car you can get something better.































Yes salvaged cars are that bad. It had enough damage from something that it would cost more to fix than its worth. Someone fixed it anyways but there is no guarantee that they fixed it correctly. Even if it was fixed correctly its going to be hard to register and insure it. Its also worth about 50% of what a car in similar condition (without the salvage title) is worth.
