Found a 98 Eclipse GSX

[kromwell]

So I found this older lady that bought this car brand new back in 97. It's the gunmetal type color, with the purple pearl in it. It's fully loaded with the factory sunroof and grey leather interior. 5 speed. It only has about 50K-60K miles on it. She didn't actually remember... she hasn't driven it in a while. Last year she only put like 1000 miles on it. It's never been driven in the winter and was always treated VERY well!

I havn't actually seen or driven the car yet, so what are the things I should look for when I go see it? She is asking like $8000 or so for the car... she hasn't given me a final price yet... she's coming up with a fair number based off of market value. Thanks guys!

Hey man, the car looks great I think I've seen that colour before.... Seems like you got a hell of a deal, do me a favour though, lose the mud flapps

Do you have any engine shots to post? Just to look for any signs of previous molestation?

 

[kromwell]

Canon SD550... 7.1 megapixels
