I would consider this shell for off-road use only.

What would be the main cause for a COD? Flooded? Totalled beyond repair or insurance deems value less than it would cost to fix? It sounds a lot more serious vs a salvage title.

I believe so. IIRC, I think the graffiti R has a COD just b/c they stripped it down to a bare shell even though it was as straight as you can be. Probably when insurances deems it too much work to fix.

I sold a 99itr with irreparable title due to theft for $3000cad ($2276 today’s usd exchange rates of 1.32usd). But that was before all the HypeR values . It was a track enthusiast that bought it and swapped a k20.
Even back then it was a hard sell had everything minus motor mind you gsr leather interior was in it. I also believe a dealer was driving it on the street till he got pulled over, I don’t think you could drive it on the streets even with dealer tags here in Canada. I think $3000usd would be a fair price .
