Sounds like a riced out beat to death piece of junk to me. Wouldn't touch it with a ten foot pole.

Just in case you need one more opinion, I'd be *very* wary of that car. That car may have been driven hard, very hard.

From an aesthetic point of view, if it were me I'd have to spend extra money to fix some of the tacky mods that were done to the car.

I'd start with an unmodified car, a blank canvas, if that's at all possible.

Depends on what your planning on doing with it. If you were planning on a motorswap (usually includes the transmission) then go for it, it wouldn't matter how much it's been beaten.

Even if you were keeping it, Nissans are good cars, I've known some that have been beaten over 170k miles and still run like new.

The big wing and single wiper are what makes it fast smart *** ;) , don't you know anything? Either way, you'll be all set in the aerodynamics dept...

Any car with that wing put on it deserves to be drove off a cliff. God only knows that if he abused the exterior like that, I can't imagine what the engine and drivetrain has gone through.

EDIT: I'd also want proof that it still has the original clutch. Is he/she the original owner? How would they know if they were not. Assume nothing when buying a used car.

hey dont rip on the mono wiper, maybe some drunk bastard ripped one off and the owner is to poor to buy a new one. im not joking because it happened to me

anyway it sounds shady...original clutch....that is an act clutch, how is that possible. i agree with the other people it has probably been driven into the ground. the old rev-limiter. besides you have to wonder why this guy wants to sell a car like that.
