Is this a good deal?

Buddy of mine found this on Craigslist Minneapolis

http://minneapolis.craigslist.org/cto/820425458.html

The guy said he would take 9500 for the car? Seems pretty desperate to sell

I would be kind of apprehensive about a salvage title but the damage doesn't seem too severe; mostly cosmetic.

It's been for sale like that since mid June. I know some people that looked at it and said to stay away. Ask him if the oil cooler is still bypassed.

Yeah, I guess that car is the biggest pile of crap. There is so many things wrong with it, do not waste your time.

Also beware when buying wrecked evo's because the cosmetic parts are hella expensive.

I talked to this guy a while ago and listed a higher price, and doens't seem in a hurry. It would make an excelent parts car, and probably to much money to make it a DD. Plus registering a salavaged title is most states is tough.

Bumper cover 700
Side skirts 400
Hood 800
Intercooler and piping?
Under carriage work?
Body work labor and paint $$$$2000
