Well let me add a little clarity to my seemingly harsh review above...

If you know what it is you're getting yourself into and your plan is to buy it cheap, cut the whole rear end off, and weld on a good one from a car that had been wrecked in the front, then this might be the perfect candidate.

Or if you just want to drive one, and don't really care that it has had extensive poorly done body work done in the past, then this might be the perfect candidate.

If this thing is being presented as "in good condition", or "restored", or "a survivor", then I protest. I'm out of touch with Z prices, and all I know is they are going up. But I sure hope you could do better for that money.

The fact that he was originally asking for $9,500 and trying to hide all of that rubs me the wrong way. TheErictag's post also gives me hope I can hold out for a much better candidate for the same price.

Oh yeah and mine runs great and does amaZing donuts default_laugh.png. I need a carpet kit and some weatherstripping and a r200 rear end and I'm set!

Now you're just teasing me LOL. It's good to have additional data points, though, so thanks!

Like they said at mandatory AA meetings, keep coming back; you'll learn something.

You can try search tempest.. you can use it to look on Craigslists everywhere and on eBay in the current search.. you can also pay a small fe I think it may be two dollars to send you an email when something within your search parameters gets posted by a seller.. it's a very good tool

I used the 2000 Kia Sportage w/s - it fits tight. Search the forums for info.
