    I just bought this today for $800. Still in the process of getting it off the dolley and into the garage while the snow falls around me LOL!

    One owner 120k 5-speed, LSD and a shoddy leather interior. All sorts of stuff replaced too (clutch, trans., $1,500 in brakes). Receipts were all there.

    I found this Craigslist Game at 1:35.

    By 2:25, I had the title to this in my hand:

    Photobucket

    1998 Sport, Six Cylinder, 5 Speed with hard doors and alloys. 83,000 miles. Needs a new top. Radiator blew on the highway, overheated and blew a freeze plug. Towed to a nearby garage and the owner didn't want to pay to fix it so he signed the title over to the garage. I bought it for $1500.

    ding ding ding ding id say we had a winner, or at least massive bonus points for actually buying something!

    SOMEONE NEEDS THIS

    If I had the room, I would have this. I have done rod bearings in a 1.9 DOHC, it is a 3 hour job AT MOST. you could have it done for less than 100 dollars, and it would be a great DD.

    These are both AWESOME.

    That Probe leaves a LOT of room to make some stupid power. Strip it, and you're running 13s on stock turbo, ecu, and fuel. You imagination can fill in the rest from there.
