Not so funny, I was considering buying that car a couple of years back. Problem for me was the Momo steering wheel thus no air bag and makes it difficult to get it inspected in Texas. Glad I passed and got a good deal on a car I have had about 2 years and put 40k miles on with few problems (of course still spent quite a bit of maintenance and repair money)

Looks like he took out the needs new engine part. But for 19.5K, you get the suspension and some 2002 (probably replica) 18" wheels. That car is probably only worth 10-15K though, IMHO.

I think cars are significantly cheaper here in Dallas. I paid $25k for a very nice 2000 model with ~65k miles on it.
