Opinions on this Rx in TX

Hello all,

I've been looking for an Rx for quite some time now -

I've found this one on Autotrader. It's about an hour north of me, and I could go pick it up now if I wanted... but what do you guys think? I talked to the salesman who is rather shady - told me "only had the car a week" ... it's been listed from the same seller for $2500 for more than 2 months. It was reduced yesterday.

Opinions? I'm sort of backing off of this one though, I'm really not sure about buying and not being able to trust the seller...

Ditto. Go up there, look it over, haggle the price down. The price he wants for THAT many miles is unreasonable. I paid $1500 for mine and it had only 140K on it. Offer $500 for it. Tell him that the mileage is what brings it down considerably. If he complains, tell him that apex seals on that 12A are probably worn down beyond specs. Most dealers have no clue about these things, they just want to get rid of them. If he says no to the offer, walk away. Dealers like this try to bilk people out of their money.
