Whats the condition of the car? Does it look beatup? motor still good? Please give us more info. By the way I have 195K miles on my 98 LS and its still runs strong with no problems. Miles doesn't really matter to me.

basically the car has alittle wear at tear. gots a cool paint job... just not that good of one... if that makes sense. suposably the engine is still strong (havent drove it yet) had cams though,i,h,e,and vfac. the water pump distributor and vaulves have been replaced.

hmm..usually I wouldnt go for a car that has already been moded, because you know people dont just mod to daily drive they've had to have pushed it a couple times...and especially with a high mileage motor. But if I were you, i'd take it for 2500 at most.

thats what everyone has been telling me... i just dont know if ill get it that low. i figured if i got it for that price (hes putting it back to stock) he will still get a good amount of money from selling the mods. and it will be a reasonable amount for the upcomming "maintnance" a gsr typically needs

Well hey. IF the car was maintained well, it's a good deal. It's a 94... it's gonna have some issues just because of its age, yeah... but that's fixable. What you need to worry about is how it's been treated. I guarantee you that car has not been treated with the care it could have had. It had mods - that tells you something there.
If that motor checks out - then go for it if the body's in ok shape. But you gotta check out that motor and make sure it's not shot.
But I'll bet you anything that car will not last you long without giving you some trouble. But hey. If you have the means to rebuild/swap that motor if it starts crapping out, and the clutch, then hey. It might be worth it.

Ya don't always find GSR's owned by the old ladies but they're out there. It's just a matter of how bad you want a GSR and how long you're willing to look around.
