I have option of acquiring a infinity 98' Q45 for 600$

[the1yankee]

Vehicle still runs just a smashed rear clip, fender, and shattered rear window. Is it worth it for me to acquire this vehicle to rehab to drive or scrap as original catalytic converter n alloy rims n other goodies besides steel would make me a profit on a 600$ investment all feedback is greatly appreciated. Thanks guys n gals for takin time to read this

Thanks for quick response would my bet be call around n try to sell it as is, fix it n sell it or part it u seem to be in the business if knowin what to do here seems like u are highly experienced in flipping vehicles. New to this part of scrapping but got offer thru stepdad n wanna answer when opportunity knocks. Would appreciate your great suggestions!!! Thank u much

to sell it as is is giving away the value you have a good motor trans doors interior computer those are big $$$$ on infiniitis and hard to find that tranny alone is around $1800 here in jersey and tilghman foreign auto parts can never get them car-part.com or rockauto will be your new best friends in parting that car out if it is a 2 dr convtirble when your done book a trip to the bahamas cuz even harder to find and most have bad trannys

I would buy this car to flip, after you get a network set up you will know your buyer before you buy it yourself. sometimes we fix them but usually flip them as is, pass all expenses on to who you flip it to, any extra money you spend on it you may not get back, if it were fixed that car kbb's for 1553 fair trade in with 200000 miles and base options, I didn t add any options. id buy it for 600, call my buyers start at 1200 and take anything over 900. you wouldn't have it an hour. there is always someone wanting a good car to fix, you have to consider a car like that at an auction will have $200+ in buyers fees alone

edit, I may need to explain why I say this as ive never covered it before on here, I use the trade value with a high miles and no options so I know the lowest possible value of the car. just bumping it to private party it was 2500 in fair condition up t3600 if its nice, this way you can let your buyer know while your trying to sell it to them what it could be worth in a worse case scenario. also some would think 900 is too cheap but if it was on my trailer and gone in an hour for 300, figure an hour going to buy it so 2 hours id do that all day

it doesn"t say where you are from but in ny nj those parts are in demand and RARE

cory i disagree on this one and you and i are usually on the same wave lengths only becuase it is a q45 and the #'s produced vs already junked he has something here even if he sold the trans and scrapped it he"ld triple his $$$$

[corycouch]

if I would hang on to it it would be different, it depends on the day also, if ive got 3 or 4 more to go pick up dropping it off in town is a good option, for me its still a fine line between a scrapper and a junkyard, im making progress tho a year ago I woulda hauled his car across the scale and not thought twice about it, I guess im a work in progress

I'm in toledo as we speak but thinking about taking road trip in the q45 w/o a window or rentin a car hauler from uhaul and takin a road trip to liberty tow in n.j n see if ya wanna partner up on this if u can get contacts to move tranny n motor. It's a 98 q45 4 dr sedan 1 owner vehicle, he loved that q45 til truck cut em off. Mom said she jus drove it yest. Yup wit a tarp on the bam window. They're offering him 2900 on the claim n 600 to buy vehicle from ins if he wAnts to keep it n I think it's my lucky day maybe. Get back to me eagle if we can both get something nice off of this I might drive it out. Get back to me.
