well the only way to tell what motor is in it is by the engine code. But as far as a daily driver offer him 1200 and see what he says. thats alot of miles on the car.

I would definetely see if he will go lower, I have a 94 cx hatch and the NADA value was only 1600 for it, and that's with only 70k miles. Good luck though

Yea.....always try to get them to come down, check the engine code to see what kind of motor it is (lower left hand side of the block when you are looking at the motor)......and have someone who knows more about cars check out that motor and swap and all.
