No affiliation. Ran the VIN in autocheck - not a salvage title but registered in New Hampshire without issuance of a title. Last reported title, with a lien, issued by Florida in 2006.

Love the interior color combination. My favorite. Looks like a good deal if you can get the back taxes, fees, etc. taken care of. But I don't know how hard that is. Again, great colors!

WOW,

So that is what my color is supposed to look like.







Another "Dove Blue" for sure. Whom ever owned that car is on the list. The car has cleared front signals and lenses.

GL to the seller

I see warning signs- stripe on rear bumper cover and it seems a different shade, hatch and hood alignment...but the digital cameras can play havoc on how stuff appears too. I'm on Cape at the moment...but I am just to socked in to head up there, sorry.
As you already know...NH purchase is DICEY due to limited regs...Live Free or Die is very commendable and worthy of aspirations, but for car purchases comes with the largest possible dose of Buyer Beware!

That said the 85 I bought in the early nineties..was sold in Mass, but actually originated in NH. It was straight and while not problem free I pretty-much lucked out with it. And it was a torque monster, for reasons that I never fully discovered.

Edit...flights from BWI to up-and-coming Manchester NH or Nashua may not be too bad...

That won't last long. That car also has the 2.54 rear end! Nice!

How does that compare to the standard gear ratio?

The 87-88 had lower 2.20 rear-end ratios for better MPG.
