werd, thats what i sold my turbo hatch for, and it had 1 year old paint.
im willing to bet the seller is taking a huge loss as it is (time and parts).
why not finish the car, toss a d16 in it, and then try to dish it off?
edit:
damn dude, you have the whole project based on your posts in the parts section. you should post up a package deal, you might get more bites.
