second gear grind and high rpm 3rd gear pop out... other than that check the owner to see if he drove like a highschool racecar driver or not. lol

Previously owned and Modified?..
* Timing Chain Tensioner?. Rattling sound at at Idle- Pricey but a must!!!.
* Side Bolsters on Leather Seats, most I've seen are poorly maintained.- Eye sore at re- sale value.

Don't forget if that DC5 came from East coast, if it did, check all the under suspension and hubs etc for rust and seized suspensions. Don't trust the Carfax
