Default Found an EF, need your thoughts...

I went to look at this one today and may go buy it. Over all it is in good condition, but does leak/burn oil. The motor will need to be replaced but not right away. It is also an auto and I would probably swap to a manual when I pulled the motor.

It has 226,000 on the car, and the auto was rebuilt last year. It has a new aftermarket cd player, but I think only 1 speaker works. The tires are in great shape, but I would be looking for wheels soon.

It drive pretty damn good, and the a/c works but it is so slow it is all most scary.

He is asking $1000 OBO, I was thinking about offering $700. He know that the motor will need a rebuild soon.

dude that is sick clean! just go for it. you can pick up a complete z6 motor for a few hundred bucks, then get an si 5spd and pedal assembly and go for the swap.
OR
get an si 5spd and pedal assembly and swap it out.

either way this will be pretty cheap, between 300-500$ for everything at least here in southern cali.
