It does look good. But I think the price is a little high. Try $500 lower. Start $800 lower.

but yeah transmission warranty is good until november this year or 10,000 miles whichever comes first.

It runs rough, does not start on the first click- starter has to rev a few times- even after running for 10 minutes...needs serious tuneup

but the underbody has no rust at all, and looks solid, but I dont trust high miles series 2s with the old intakes one bit.

Hold out for an L67. Or until I can get there and shop with you.

I owe you now. That MAF sensor is gorgeous.

120K isn't so bad, I've got 168K on my '98 SE and she'* still running good. I'd say talk him down to 4 and grab it.

driverjohn2005 is on a distinguished road

That car needs to be priced a $1,000 lower for what it is. Looks like a pretty bare bones model at that.

Keep looking

looks like my 96 minus a few options.
Bought mine with 68k. It was a factory owners wifes car. Pampered all the way.
This car has too high miles for the asking price.
Go $1000 lower. what do you have to loose?
Theres many more out there 2 - 3K.
