Default 86.5 5-Speed, no side moldings, 81k miles for $6500

This sounds to me as if it may be a steal:

http://sfbay.craigslist.org/eby/cto/2340446285.html

According to the ad, a lot of work was done recently, including the timing belt, tires, motor oil, fuel pump and filter, alternator, coolant, thermostat, and spark plugs. That's a few thousand in repair and maintenance righ there...

It's located in Bill Ball's vincity.


Question of the day: Is Kiesan going to make the seller a motorcyle trade offer?

Still looks nice!

Jim I only see one scratch around the arch--am I missing something?

Thanks!

That scratch in the fender is probably a reflection. But I can't figure out what's going on with the A-Pillar trim. It somehow looks bent outwards.

Good catch on the front bumper! The lights are pushed-in. This will require time intensive spoiler and bumper removal, I believe. Note that the bumper is also full of bugs in that picture.

Diamond in the rough or rough diamond

I guess it would depend what was really done to the car (and not done) to add that to the cost of buying.

The interior shot looks ok, altho' there's the usual bit of wear on the driver's seat.

Weird non-factory shift **** and boot fitted, and black interior.

It has headers tho' And the engine bay looks ok

This looks like a job for Porken!

No jump post, test port, A/C port, or left wiper cover, not to mention the broken cassette holder lid...crush it.


No rear air, no rubs, not full-leather, 5-speed, silver/black. Very nice.

I'd guess the VIN to be in the 2000's by the dipstick, if original.
