Too bad it's an automatic. The price is probably reasonable given the work involved, but it's really hard to justify when you can get an older corvette for the same money.

Still, the FD was my dream car in high school so maybe when I have disposable $$$ I can pick one up.

Like I posted earlier, then you've got a LOT of alerts because you post such a wide variety of them.

What are you using for alerts? I use IFTTT and use up my allocation when I'm running recipes on things that get a lot of action.

This thread helped with my s2k purchase but I did find the car posted on autotrader first.

I have bought a car from a member and have also sold one to a member a few years back.

Car is in great shape, 1 owner only and with a box full of maintenance records.
There isn't even a door ding on the car. I knew if I didn't pull the trigger someone else would immediately. Only managed to knock down the price by $200, but I thought it was worth it.

It looks cool, but it is a HUGE red flag when the only info about an aftermarket turbocharged vehicle is "top mount".... No brand, km, is it tuned, what brand IC or manifolds etc etc.

Low KM for the price and being a 98, it has a heavy duty transmission.

LOL ya I would. emailed

I bought my first GTI from the buy n sell (and sold it there), and helped my buddy buy a corrado (that I eventually bought from him) from the province classys.

This whole hobby started by going through the papers with car dudes in the break room.
