I'm guessing $125, since my auto instructor bought a neon for 500

Jim is the smartest, but xDRx wins!

It was for sale by a younger couple that was moving soon and they needed the car out of the garage. The craigslist ad listed it for $500, I offered $300 and they came back at $350. I went to the DMV and got the title expedited for an extra $20, so I will have it in 6 days. Made it home 90 miles away and drives just like my last 95 did! It feels just like home... and I forgot all about the low-end torque of the series 1 L67.

It needs many things I know, but for $350 I can't go wrong. I found a hood locally for $75 already, and I plan on making a list of everything it needs to determine what I am going to fix on it. Not sure if I plan on selling it right away or not...

Better pictures tomorrow after a good wash and vacuum.
