Check out this guy trying to pass off a 94 as a 95:

BTW, check out the other 95 for sale, too bad it's an auto. (VR base w/auto, only 7 imported!).

Heh heh. It's for sale by the "original owner", who doesn't know what year it was, huh?

I talked to the guy the other day about it. Here's the scoop... it's not HIS car! He's storing and maintaining it for a friend that got transferred overseas for work. Apparently his friend won't be coming back for a while and decided to sell the car.
When I initially saw that it was a 95 with so little miles I immediately called him to make an offer. We tried to work out a deal but it never panned out. When I talked to him the bid was over $19,000 (which is his reserve price). Apparently when some of the bidders found out it was truly a 94 they retracted they're bids.
It still a good price for a 94 with so little miles. My concern is the car is in storage all the time and only occasionally get's driven, he said a couple times a month. I think the car needs to be driven more than that. Did you look at the picture of the engine? It's filthy.
