A totally rust free 2002 (carb’d shitbag bottom of the barrel model) with crummy doors is worth about $1500-2000. The doors are always fucked , they “peel” apart at the bottoms for some strange reason. The rear strut towers are an issue too.

\*\*\* That’s a pretty shitty thing to say

The rust factor has been covered pretty well. Watch out for floor pans and frame rails, spare tire area, etc. And m10s suck, put an s14 in there
