I assume that this car is being sold "as is" so the OP will be on the hook for any hidden damage - a big risk.
Good points. And I think that's the message to the OP and anyone considering buying a salvage vehicle -
it's a huge risk. Often you get a mild discount, but just as it was mentioned above, if you're looking for a discounted MDX enough to buy a salvaged vehicle, then maybe you need to pull back your search and look for a clean-titled Honda Pilot instead (which as many of us know is a Hondafied MDX).
