seems alright not to bad of a price on it, Only thing that caught my attention were the tail lights those suck. Other than that if it drives well and doesnt have major issues seems like a good deal

I think that car would look real good with some export tail lights in place of whats on it now.

Looks nice. If it drives well that would be a good find. It needs tail lights and wheels...with that she would be good to go.

I would pass on it, theres people on this forum who have gotten an SS with 30K on the clock for 10, which is a way better deal. It's not just a better deal because it's an SS but the miles too. When you start running over 100 thousand on the mileage you start running into trouble, at least in my experience. Save your money and wait for that one car that you know you can't pass up.

wonder why they dont have a pic of the engine bay...looks clean, but its at a dealer so theyve gone the extra mile to make it "look" clean. only thing i can see wrong with it is the right fender is pushed out in the same place mine is from having shops jack up the car in the wrong spot.

id be asking a lot of questions to someone for a car with 125k on it.

good luck with you new purchase!!!

I'd rather just put stock tails or pre-97 tails than exports. Exports just don't look good IMO, but to each his own.
