Default 1995 SC300 5spd $2500 firm

Hi guys, i have a 95' SC 300 factory 5spd for sale. It has around 240k miles on it. Only mods are Espiliar lowering springs. Car runs good and paint is good for the age. Interior has the normal wear for the age. Here is a list of the things that I know is wrong.

Small exhaust leak
Dent in rear quarter where my brother in law backed up into a parked car
Cracked taillight from the same accident
Some gauge cluster needles are burnt out
Some oil drips on the driveway when parked
Failed emissions, high NOx ppm and one other thing was high (the other ppm)
Some clearcoat peeling on the front bumper
Title says ODOMETER DISCREPANCY When i got the car the plug to the odo behind the cluster was unplugged. When i plugged it up it showed around 215k. So true mileage is really unknown.

Car still shines pretty well and drives good.
I got the car a few years ago with around 215k miles and never had a problem. Some things that i did since i've had it.

Regular oil changes (non-synthetic)
Tranny Fluid changed at about 230k
Dif fluid
Caps, rotor button, spark plugs and wires
Front brakes
Aftermarket cat in 06 or 07

Good luck with the sale, but man I dont think you will be able to get all that much for this car. About the only thing going for it is it being a 5 speed. Looks like its going to pretty much need an engine overhall. Gaskets, sensors...ect. I hope you can get what you want for it, but I would take pretty much any offer someone comes with. (not trying to be a **** by the way)

thanks for the input....
but why an overhaul...i never mentioned where the leak was from and it doesn't burn oil and it still runs good.

I think the price is pretty fair, but thats my opinion.

yeah man just to help you out a bit you would make more from parting that car out cause nobody will give you 2500. id be super suprised. car could have close to 300k for all you know but it is good your being honest regarding descrepecies

piossibly if it didnt have quarter panel damage you could get 2k MAYBE but you should part it out. woulda been great for cash 4 clunkers NO OFFENSE.

but ill buy the 5 spd out of it lol (seriously)

No problem with the E brake, its at my father in laws house and he's just paranoid like that.

Btw, you guys must be able to find some REALLY good deals. Next time I look for a car, I will ask here first.
