i looked at it and im sort of uncertain. i think it needs a new input shaft bearing, and the CEL doesnt come on with the dash lights, just the Check control. the body isn’t as great as he says, but the car has never been in an accident, and there is no rust underneath. he basically dropped the price $1700 if i picked it up today. i told him i need to think about it.

The car actually has 184k miles,

**problems that i saw.**

driverside window is wacky, it goes up, then down, then up, then down when i push the up button.

driverside mirror doesnt move all the way out for me to see.  
dash lights were tricky to come on  
needs steering wheel ring for horn to work (99 steering wheel)  
power steering leak  
fan speed and airflow isnt that great (probably dirty cabin filter)  
needs tires  
passenger headlight has condensation inside  
shifter is fucking terrible - so sloppy, i was afraid to shift fast  
needs windshield  
paint isn’t the greatest like he stated  
interior is ok  
car has been smoked in

i couldnt really check under the front due to it being low and my jack being too high.

**Good points**

All VINS on body panels  
heated seats worked  
car seemed to drive decent  
brakes were good  
handled ok  
bilsteins / h&r springs looked fine  
RSM seem’d ok  
No underside rust

think i should move on? what would you guys pay for something like this?

Not much. I’d rather have one owned by a guy who spent his money on maintaining the car, not mods. Fixing other peoples screwups (steering wheel thing, etc) sucks.

Every one of them will have a sloppy shifter but it takes $40 to fix it to better than showroom new.

I’d keep searching. Tons of cars out there in your price range.

lol Life’s hard sometimes. The shifter fix is delrin carrier arm bushings and a new OEM shifter “knuckle.” Takes maybe an hour or two and makes a world of difference.

The window thing is common on the older ones and is a simple but PITA fix. Every time you take the door panels off you damage them in some way, especially a 95. But when its done, its good for another 15 years…

Power steering leak is almost always one of the two low pressure lines. Easy DIY, parts are probably $100 (which is irritating for what you get).

HYC - Aside from the above (and you found a relatively bad egg), plan to check the cooling system. If it’s original or old, parts are $300 including rad. If it’s been maintained, no trouble. If it’s been neglected, do it now. This is the cause of the E36 headgasket stories you hear - letting your cooling system stuff break.

I decided against buying it. He said he’d sell it for $5800. In his ad, he is obviously lying.

no, he was selling it for $7500, then said he will drop the price by $1700. if he offered it for $1700, it’d be in my garage now.
