So i was browsing craigslist today and found a 95 LSC for sale. I called the guy here is some info about the car:

95 LSC
125k mi
black\black
10 disc
painted 10 spokes
new michelin tires
sunroof
cell phone
clean carfax
aftermarket alarm and remote start
clean title in hand
paint is in ok shape
black painted grill
No HID's, but i have 2 complete sets anyways
$2500

It is about 200mi from my house and he wants me to come look at it tomorrow. He is in the military and leaving on saturday for TX. Because of this he is VERY negotiable on the price and almost instantly came down to $2000, but said he would go lower with a cash offer.

What should I do? I dont really need another car, but it would be nice to get back into a mark as a daily driver, I just dont know if im ready to part with my truck yet, despite the high gas prices.

What should I do? Im pretty sure i can pick it up for somewhere between $1500-1800 cash. Im half tempted to just buy it, keep what i want, and part the rest.

I really dont know what to do. Id hate to drive 3+ hours and the car end up being a piece, but then again its not a bad deal.

HELP!!!

If the car doesnt have any hidden problems, but I guess there is only one way to find out.

sounds like a good deal!

go and look at it or you will have the "would ifs"

Im thinking about going to look at it on friday night possibly, but 3+ hours in the car is certainly alot to look at it, especually with gas prices as high as they are. Im so back and forth on this its not even funny.

I would go take a look at it at least. It'd make a good road trip in the VIII.

he's leaving on sat, so make a late fri appointment or sat morning to see it and steal it from him for $1500.sell it, part it out ,whatever ,you stand to make a few bucks on the deal evan with the cost of gas getting it home
