Default Looking at buying a 93 si and need some input

I am only considering buying this car because the rest of it is mint, I've never seen a 93 Si in this condition, even with the quarter panel repair it's a nice looking car. The interior is like new, and the price is better god damn good.

*Update I went and took the car for a nice drive and than gave it a good going over. The quarters aren’t all the bad but who ever fixed them last did a shitty job, no panel was bought looks like they just made one from a few small pieces. I would much fathered seen them rusted and known what I had to work with, the only really way to see how bad the are is to sand blast them. But the rest of the car is *Mint*, interior and floor are amazing.

Here are the problems I was told about and a few I found.

Crack in windshield
Hole in muffler
Needs either Alternator or battery, maybe both.
Shifter bushing
Needs new rotors and pads
Shitty repairs quarters and paint job

I can buy it for 1250. Specs on the car is 93 Si with 278kms (Canadain). So does that seem fair for what it needs?


Here are a few picks.
















I am really hoping this works out, I am getting very tried of looking a car this time. I do it to myself but I enjoy the experience of different vehicles.

Grind him down to $1000CAD. Interior looks clean as hell.

Heres what i am finger on.

1250 + tax for the car
150 For the windsheild
50 for a Oem muffler
100 for either a battery or alternator
85 a peice for rear quaters
400 to have them installed and painted

That puts me around 2200. Is it worth it?

The hatch looks worse than it is, a quick sand blasting will fix that no worries.
