$6750 and needs a rebuilt transmission? Doesn't seem like that good a deal to me.

For a pretty clean LE anniversary edition SLP car I'd pay that in a heart beat. Im sending the trans to TDP regardless of it working or not. Different strokes I guess!

I agree it being a good deal. You'll be south of $11,000 after fees and a new trans. Seems like it's worth it for an LE without any accidents based on the carfax.

Look closer guys. The hood and the right front fender do not line up well, looks like the hatch and left quater may not line up quite right. Clear coat starting to whiten/peel on the hatch and hood. Paint and clear chipping and scratched on front bumper, bad transmission. Would need at least 1000-1500 in paint work and a 1500+ dollar transmission repair. Then there's whatever you don't know about the car. If it were in great shape inside and out with 109k would it be a steal for 10k? Because that's what you'll pay if it just needs paint and a transmission. There are cars out there for less that don't need those things.

Overall, it's not bad, but it's not necessarily special.

Agreed, I called and spoke with him today. Car has clearcoat peeling on hood, fender and door along with him stating it appeared as if the hood and quarter panel had been repainted at some point. Plus I had him check a few things and it does not appear to be a true SLP car. Im steering clear of this one. A shame too, if I had plenty of money I would restore it just to save it, but I dont. Im sure someone will come along, just not right for me.

Gotta make sure and look real close at every body line, every paint surface etc. All the things I saw I gathered just from looking at the pictures.

Hated to see those things because it did originally look like a really nice car.

Dang. Too bad. But honestly nothing someone with the mind to do it couldn't fix. We've got to come to terms with these cars are 14 years old at a minimum. Wanna keep em going gotta put in the work. We all know that.
