tell me if this car looks fishy to ya
i was browsin on ebay just lookin at whats for sale and i saw this car, it looks decent and kind of nice from the first few pics, but then look at the up close pics.. damn thats a shitty paint job, if you notice the rust spot in the close up but then look at the far away there is no spot there, i didnt see anywhere where he said there was a blue parts car included, am i crazy or does it seem like maybe he photoshoped it? if so buyer beware

I think it's documented pretty well, and the reason the rust spot disappears is because it's not very large, and the camera doesn't have very impressive resolution. Also the paint does look pretty bad when there's not a dark reflection on it.

I personally think that car is a steal for $300. Whats it need, some paint and a few misc pieces. Some new seats..Thats about it. Getting a new title shouldnt be all that big of a deal, more of just a pain in the ***. Heck Im about to buy a wrecked parts car for $300......

it looks alright to me, best watch out... it may be stolen... and that is ALOT of miles. i'd look for another if you're looking for something dependable. he probably did photoshop it... that is a great paint job for the hell that car looks like up close.

I guess my major concern is the salvage title. Why was it salvaged? I don't think I would buy a car with a salvaged title, with the exception of a "parts car". Just my opinion.

search my name and see what I paid for my rx7's and the condition there in.
200k+ miles is a dead motor IMO

I say buyer beware.... reading through that page it says this:
-I don't have the title - I bought this car in Arizona with a salvage title, when I moved to NY they took the title - only way I can get the title is to pass a NYSDMV salvage inspection, which is going to cost me too much.
that seems shady to me, i would never buy a car without a title.
