I haven't bought it yet. I'm going up there to take a look at it today. It looks and seems from his description it's been well taken care of so I don't imagine too many surprises, but we'll see. His new pictures are better than his previous post.

Since you'll be in those parts, there's a higher miles one in Sterling but not as nice as ^ for a couple k less.

So I rode up to Northern VA yesterday and looked at it. Overall it's in good shape. Tires are 80% but rims show the 157K mileage but no curb rash so probably an A-, paint has mostly normal wear so I'd say a B-, interior shows a lot of wear but is clean overall so probably a solid B, but a lot of new parts in the last couple years (starter, aluminum coolant pipes, A/C compressor, blower motor, center driveshaft support bearing, and some other smaller parts), everything works, the under side is clean, engine is spotless, belt looks newer so we agreed on $6250. I think it was a DC car so it doesn't currently have an inspection sticker, so I'm going to get him to inspect it, but as long as it passes inspection, I'm pretty happy with it so we'll probably pick it up later this week.

Excellent! I think it's a good buy. If you need a PPI Taylor Chapman is your guy in that area.

Shoot, Chapman is only like 20 minutes away from where the vehicle is, I think I might give him a shout. Thanks Trinitony!
