Default good price?

i'm really looking at a '92 SC400, w/160k miles, for $3800

was wondering if this is a deal or a rip?

guy says there are some rips on the interior, but that he's willing to pay to get it reupholstered at no extra cost

was that meant to be sarcastic?

i meant he's willing to reupholster it as part of me buying it.

Reupholstering is like a 600 dollar job, thats not including the installation. So he's including that for free, i would take it. Your paying less than 2K for what i payed for mine with only 8K less mileage that mine had.

so i went to check it out, the 92...

total piece of junk, ball bearings ready to go out, guy put new tires to try and hide it, clearcoat was fading on the black paint, and the tach gauge didnt light up, besides interior being ratty.



there is another though, a 96, w 135k miles, totally immaculate, for about $7k
