depending on a test drive and ppi, it would be. those sport seats are VERY nice and fuchs aren't cheap. if it has no sunroof thats my perfect track cadidate. i can't stand the color combo, but that door would be easily fixed, and if it drove well it is definitely worth a couple thousand. oh, and you have 15" fuchs, not 16", 7" wide in front and 8" wide in the rear.

i dont know......most of it doesnt look bad, but when the door is like that, doesnt it usually mean the "frame" is a little twisted and they had to pry the door open....and thats how it looks now. i dont think the fenders on these cars have that much play to adjust for that. but maybe. i wonder what the reserve is set at? interior looks good I WOULD JUNK THAT STEREO!!!!!! IT LOOKS LIKE MINE. mine is the mp3 player san jose.......JUNK!!

It usually means the door was open and they pried it backwards, i.e. door open and backed out of the garage, door caught on garage wall.

Yea, new door plus paint will be about $500-ish depending. Also, what's up with the climate control system? It looks entirely ripped out in the pictures. . .
I'd ask for some closeups of the seats (ripped sport seats are still ripped seats and will cost an arm & leg to get fixed properly - ask how I know!)
Might not be a bad deal though, looks like in pretty good shape overall. Find out when the last time a clutch was changed is. They SHOULD HAVE done it while the engine was out being rebuilt, but he doesn't say they did. A clutch job is many hours of excruciating hell or many hundreds of dollars, so find out before you buy!
