You can see the engine bay looks clean and it also has leather seats that are in great condition and everything else looks great so I think he got a good deal saying that I paid $2800 for a 89 240sx with 139k miles..

a 89 iwth 135K is worth no more than 2K max and thats being nice

but just because you can see leather and clean engine bay doesnt mean a thing.

the car can have 300K miles for all you know. he can be the 10th owner along with the car being salvaged and thef recovery. the frame can be twisted like a yay head

you are judging a book by its cover.

as i to have a zenky, I congratulate you on getting a very good deal for that zenk. A lot of drivers, if they take care of the interior and exterior they also take care of the motor. dont listen to these haters but do take off the bra.

dude, you can't tell if he made a good deal or not.

sure it's pretty..but that bra alone makes this car worth no more than 3k.
