depends on the amount of maintenance done.

if everything's up to oe specs and the maintenance schedule's been followed then its almost worth it. it's still a bit pricey for a 93 with huge miles. it IS about 15k miles a year, and that's not so gentle.

that pricing is sometwhere along the lines of what edmunds.com or kbb.com would tell you, but make sure you check it out or have a mechanic check it out. oh and do a carfax on it, too. good luck

If you plan to run stock, i.e. daily driver, it's okay. The price is alright but don't forgert mileage and year, dude was right if the maintenance was done religiously it'd be cool. Are you gonna run mods? If so you might wanna overhaul or swap motors. How does the body look?

You can pound it all you want . But it really does depend on past maintenence. Get it , give it a good tune up , and make sure you get all over it before you pound it .

sounds like a good deal. i bought my 95 DX before for $3800 with 180K on the body and 60K on the rebuilt engine. i still had to fix up the exterior a little bit. mileage didnt really bother me since it had the engine rebuilt and a lot of stuff changed so that spared me on maintenance cost. yeah $3800 was too much for a stock car. its part of life. i made a mistake and learned through it. goodluck on your car bro.
