Default So they want $1300

I was talking to my gf and she told me that her family wanted $1300 min for their 90 teg. I've told all of you about this before, but here is a reminder....... It has flood damage, engine overhaul, needs some body work, somewhat questionable reliability and 160,00 mi. I heard it has a hard time starting too. So I told my gf that I wouldn't go over $500 and gave her reasons, but she said whatever. She didn't want me to be cocky with the negotiations with her father, but this is more of a business decision and has nothing to do with feelings. Just thought you would want to know.

I'm just going to use it as a project car. Or I can fix it up and sell it for more. We'll see.

haha man when your dealing with anything related to your girlfriend, it aint just business.... and if you sell it for me after buying it, you will definetly hear about it regardless of how much u spent on it. True it doesnt seem worth 1300 so in that case, I would just let it be..

With all that damage and problems he should give it to you for free just for the hassel of taking it off his hands.

I'd avoid that like the plague unless you're using pocket money to buy it.

I would skip on this and look for something else. I would even have to think about taking it for free if they offered.

forget it man, 1300 is very high for something with all those problems. You can get a clean one for a little over 2k

Never buy a car from a friend or family. Too many things can go wrong
