    LITTLE ABOUT THE CAR ITS A BLACK ON BLACK CAR WITH A NEW TRANSMISSION,NEW TIRES,AND A CUSTOM SOUND SYSTEM,IT HAS TWO 12IN SUBWOFFERS IN THE BOX,1200 WATT AMP,AND A NEW AFTERMARKET KENWOOD.WHATS WRONG WITH THE CAR? THE CAR NEEDS HEAD GASKETS,I LET MY MACHANIC LOOK AT IT AND HE TOLD ME THAT IT WOULD BE BEST ANDCHEAPER TO REPLACE THE MOTOR. SO I DONT HAVE THE TIME TO DO THAT PLUS I JUST GOT A NEW CAR SO IM DONE PUTTIN MONEY IN TO THIS ONE. BUT THE CAR IS DRIVEABLE. THIS IS A RELIABLE CAR AND THE BODY IS IN GOOD CONDITION AS WELL AS THE INSIDE OFIT. IM ASKING FOR 900 OR BEST OFFER THIS CAR MUST GO A.S.A.P.

    That was the Posting On Craigslist....is it worth me buying and fixing it?

    And probably the head gaskets aren't bad, but intake gaskets. What trim level?

    If i had the cash, I would buy it and flip it. If he needs the car gone, then see if he will take $700 for it.

    If it is in that good of condition, you can get a UIM and gaskets (if thats the problem) for like 150-200 bucks...so youll have a 1100 car that you could possibly end up selling later on for A LOT more than what you have in it

    go ahead and grab it for yourself. as long as the car itself isnt a pit, you will be set on a cheap car.

    Get it and do a top swap. If your going to dig into the motor, can do that while your at it. Get with Ed Morad and see how much it will cost you for everything to do it. If it.s all in your price range, there you go. If not, change the gaskets and have a nice suttle ride.
