Well it's very very clean... besides a few dead bugs on the front bumper... crappy weather has kept me from washing it. And it only has 19,400 miles.

I think it looks good but it could use some wax. Hopefully the weather will clear up by this weekend :thumbsup I hope you guys like it.

Oh and I've been on the site for a while now but now I guess I'm ACTUALLY a member. :supercool

Just another picture that shows the quality of the paint.

Don't look at the dead bugs :D

Besides the dust the interior is perfect.

Hope you liked the pics. As far as future plans go all I want now is a new cd player, some floor mats (the ones in the car had tweety bird on them), oem front lip, silvia grill, and B&M short shifter. In the (hopefully near) future it's going to be some megan coilovers, 5 lug conversion and some new wheels and tires. And brakes and lsd.

Oh and this is the car that was replaced. A 99 eclipse GS that is still insanely clean :D. So far this change has been no problem whatsoever :thumbsup

Looks really clean, and only 19,400 miles (is that a typo?) WOW.
The first time I talked to someone about the car, the owners grandmother, she said the car still smelled like new. I thought it was BS but whenever I first sat in it it actually kind of did. It didn't smell like smoke or B.O. like most cars I ride in. My eclipse smelled like a summer breeze :( My 240 needs to smell like that asap.
:D

You are god for finding that. If it were an SE I would have actually come to your town and bowed before you, but since it isn't I'll just give you props and this smilie:

Heh I've looked for well over a year now. I found a 96 with 38k miles but I passed it up because I really wanted a kouki. Then one day I came across this car on ebay and got pretty interested. I really wanted an SE but I figured since it only had 19k miles a lsd and 5-lug weren't all THAT important. I can change all that later.

I never bid but I watched the auction get up over 10k (I believe, if it didnt is was really close) and the girl had the reserve at 12k..? If this was an SE I would consider paying close to 12k but... it's not so I gave her what I thought was a pretty low-ball offer just to see what she would say and she took it.

And the car is perfect. If it wasn't for stupid kbb prices this thing should be worth 12 easy considering people pay 16-17k for something like a newer celica...
