Darien, I would check out the classified on here. I would trust spending a little more from someone on here then cheaper in the outside world. Most of the people on here do their own wrenching and care a lot more for their cars. Good Luck! They are cars second to none.

Just curious: What was the asking price? How many miles on the car? Any special options, upgrades, or colors?

Uh, which piece of 'misinformation' were you referring to from us?

Suggesting that the information given in this thread with regard to the timing belt issues is "misinformation" indicates that you are ignorant of the basic design and makes you dangerous to people seeking accurate advice. You should clarify your opinion on the subject such that your point may be understood and your inaccurate assessment can be corrected by the experts here.

Maybe you are on the wrong board. We do not value "bull ****e" here, only facts.

Hey BerNard94,

The advice given to me helped me in my final decision! I purcahased the car via the intrenet and phone conversations. The PO was up front about the Warning Lights and supplied requested photo's, but when I flew into Burbank yesterday, the car had other issues. 1. I was told it was the original paint, false, it had been repainted very cheap and was peeling. 2. The sunroof was sagging in the rear. 3. The hood light had exploded frying the wires, which could lead to other elec. problems. 4. And lastley, the rear end sounded like grinding gears while driving.

The asking price was $11,000 if anyone is still interested I can supply the info.

As for the rude comments, very proffesional, NOT!

Darien,
All in all, a good result: glad you asked the questions, even more so that you had a physical exam opportunity. For the cost of a flight, you are now a more experienced shark hunter - let the hunt continue ....

I know why he had it painted. It had some clear coat flaking when I saw it. The grindy sound is a baaaaaadd thing. I know where there is a nice black/black 89S4 almost ready. PM me if your interested. Should be a pretty good deal. I"m not a broker, won't take any comish on it.

Obviously, you must have some insider information. How are you related to the car or seller, and what do you know that we don't?
