11 Second Club
This is just my opinion so take this for what it's worth. I would stay away from that car for two reasons:
1). Over 100,000 miles. Normally I wouldn't have a problem with that mileage but a heavily modded car with that many miles could be a ticking time bomb.
2). The price is high for the year and miles of the vehicle. I understand he's trying to sell the fact that it's fast with a lot of power and suspension mods. But with a 98 and that many miles he needs to be a little more flexible. After all it's not a 8 or 9 second car here. That's a high mileage, high 11 second car if I had to guess.
Personally I would rather buy a stock car and mod it myself. But if I were to want that car I might offer him $9,500 for it.
