He's just into ratings, and biased consumer views.

Seriously, since when did this happen? Last I knew, nobody knew my name here, and even fewer called me by a name completely contrary to that on my birth certificate lol. Its Corey, mang.
Anyway, how is Mexicans a racial comment? Now if I had said something like beaners, etc. then I would totally understand. Would it be better if I said 'Hispanics' instead of 'Mexicans'?
Oh wait, lol. Its in my pixelcar thing. No Kevin did the base, I just modified the car, chopped the top, etc.

Well... the forums sure have changed. In any case, if I offended anyone, I apologize.

I know 
I called the owner up today, and her husband said it had no leaks or anything mechanically wrong with it, just interior stuff, i.e. needs pw switch, couple small seat rips, etc. he said he doesn't know how well the A/C works, but last he drove it a year or so ago it worked. And its a 93

Okay, so the guy told me on the phone that he thinks that the driver's font caliper is dragging. So I show up there, and he hands me the keys and the first thing I notice is an alarm remote. It works (+5 points)! So I open her up, and try to figure out how the hell to get the top open. My buddy (we call him joo) pointed out the latches on the top. It opens and closes fine (+10 points)! Took me a while to figure out how to get the rear windows up though. The windows work (+5 points). So I turn the car on, and check the coolant and it looks fine, but needs a reservoir (Fastback parts car anyone?). So I pop open the trunk, and it is Le Tiny (-5 points). The guy tells me the brake lights don't work, so I have joo push the pedal. Sure enough, they dont work. I look on the floorboard for the telltale black plastic pieces, and sure enough, the piece of plastic that works the brake light switch is broken. So I figure that the fuse has been removed to keep them from draining the battery. The exterior is very nice. I could tell by the color under the hood that it was once white, but is now this color
Theres a couple rock chips on the front dam and the headlight covers.
So me and Joo take a test drive. The front brakes are worn. In fact, I think theyre griding on the driver's side, coherent to what the guy told me. So we take er out. She's much more sluggish than my fastback, but the vert is god knows how many pounds heavier. The tranny seems to shift fine, as far as I can tell, but it takes a little more pedal movement than I would have thought to get it to downshift. Once it gets into 3rd or 4th gear, unless you press the pedal down just a bit more, it loses just a little speed. Could be that it hasn't been tuned up in a few years, could be the brake dragging. Ride quality was nice compared to my fastback's Tein S-Tech spring and GR-2 combo did.
The interior is alright. It needs a driver's power window switch, and the switch for the rear windows could use a replace as well. The dash has a crack above the gauge panel, pretty typical.
