My M3 and X5M are both salvage cars. I repaired them myself and would trust them in their current state more than a similar mileage car with a clean title, just because I know the car's condition now with their extensive list of new parts.
There's nothing inherently wrong with salvaged cars. It's just how they are rebuilt- there are more shops cutting corners and doing amateur work than there are quality rebuilders doing better work at the cost of a slimmer profit margin.
I am a state licensed dismantler, and yes- these days I see just as many public buyers buying through brokers as I do legitimate businesses buying inventory. It definitely drives the prices up.
