the guys actually selling for about 3900, but im thinking we can hit up around 3000
anyways, its got 160k on it
aside from that it has a few minor probs
*A crack in the windshield, passenger side
*the AC has a slight clicky prob, but it worked fine after warming the car up
*the drivers side window is jerky when going up and down
*some minor scratches, lil bit of rust
Other than that, the car runs pretty nicely, i like the way the engine sounds, nice wooshing sound, i didnt get to really test out its speed since they dealer didnt put any gas in it, and my mom was there, but ya
i like it, nice small turning radius (compared to my lumina) and ya it just sounds really nice
whats a good price? is 3500 or so good?
im gonna get a tranny swap eventually (first thing probly) and then a engine swap so the 160k isnt a BIG deal...
anyone know any free carfax reports?

well the crack is towards the bottom right corner, not big enough to impair vision or anything, i didnt notice it until my mom point it out but ya its visible
the rust, theres some like on the drivers side, near umm i guess you could call it the side skirts lol
the guy put new brakes on it thats somethin good

making sure you get a car that has a full out inspection done is vital make sure that you yourself get some1 as a mechanic or something like that check's it do a check to see if its clear title also all that stuff little to no rust as possible it will save you tons of time in the long run a little rust here and there is okay nothing a dremel tool or grinder cant fix and a little of paint until u get the whole new paint job.. just get it checked out so u dont get ripped off like i did. so many lies only 2 previous owners and about 50 problems to date and more comming. get it checked proporly buy professional's hook it to a machine etc... thats what i should have done. Best to be safe than sorry. getting a good base is vital. then work your way up unless you dont mind the whole strip work.
