A TJ with a rebuilt title is a big deal, it's worth a lot less. Then add the 2.5 and its worth even less. No insurance company totals a Jeep over a bent bumper. That might be what the seller told you when you bought it. Maybe a bent frame that you can't really tell until you do some measuring.
Not everyone wants a 2.5, especially with a rebuilt title.
Let the race begin! Tell your friends!It'll be a race to see which one sells first...the TJ, or the Miata. @Chris feels the TJ is more of a summer vehicle, and I'd dare say that the Miata most assuredly is "more of a summer vehicle". They may both still be on the market come June!
I have all the rebuilt info being that my mechanic is the mechanic I bought it from so I feel if I present all the evidence for the repair I’m hopeful I’ll sell. There’s no uncertainty or sneaky-ness and I think that’ll mean a lot for a buyer
I asked for improvements for my post but all you’ve done is point out things I’m already battling against. Do you actually have any recommendations on how to make the sell?
Perhaps, but in my mind the Jeep Wrangler is such a Summer vehicle. They're actually pretty terrible in the snow to be honest
Nothing like a Subaru at least.
I'm just pointing out the facts is all. You tell us everyone wants a TJ. And I point out the facts is all. You came on here asking for help. You say the only reason it has a rebuilt title is that it has a bent front bumper. I find that hard to believe that an insurance company would total a TJ for a bent front bumper. And now in post #26 you say you have all the rebuild info. I feel you're not telling us the whole story.
I don’t know the full story because I didn’t own it when it happened and I was shown information and evidence that it was completely repaired other than the slight droop. But again I don’t give a fuck because it’s not my problem I’m trying to sell the car. I want suggestions on how to improve my listing. Not sitting here talking about the car I don’t care about anymore. So it’s a rebuilt title who cares let’s move on to: how do I sell a minor rebuilt title for the price it deserves.
The one I’m looking at doesn’t leak. The hardtop is in perfect condition along with the soft top. I also found no evidence of water inside the vehicle.

People are trying to help. You won’t get a lot of help with your attitude.
Not sure if I would sell it to a woman because of the passenger side leak. Everything else I think you’re totally right. Too bad I can’t park it though it’s my daily
The post about it not being a bent bumper for a salvage title is correct, salvage title means it was a "total loss" for the insurance company to issue that, I don't care what you were told. The salvage title is definitely what's turning people away my friend, so it is your problem. I paid 6k about four years ago for my 4 banger @ 140k miles, but it has a clear title fwiw.
