Well, that's just it. I ran a Carfax on the VIN# and it comes up as a true one owner car and the miles are documented as accurate. There have been no documented accidents or anything. It's record is SPOTLESS. I also just got some more pics of the interior. Dash is perfect, HUD working too. The only thing that is "off" is the driver's side seat with the typical small rip. No biggie and is expected. Jeez, even the carpet looks great in this thing.

I know this is pricey for a coupe like this from 89. In fact, Kelly BB has it at 2800 bucks as is, but the rarity of a find like this makes it more worth it to me. Oh, and when I spoke to the owner he confirmed NO RUST as well so I feel fairly confident that this is a solid car.

Having said that, with the comment above about this NOT being a rarity in CA, where would I look online for these cars because the only places I know to look have shown only chopped up rust buckets and high mileage swappers. If I could find a car like this in Cali I'd be more than happy to save on the shipping and maybe even fly down to drive it home.

Remember, this is going to be my only car and DD so what I'm looking for is a car that needs NOTHING to be reliable and aesthetically appealing (as stock goes, I'll be happy to add wheels etc. later).

Thanks again for all of your input.
