This car has only 12893 miles. Go look at it and tell me if you think the miles have been rolled back. I was told to always make sure the numbers line up when buying a used car. The numbers don't really line up perfect, but the car looks great. If this is real miles, I want it. Just see what you think.

Gotta love the 'grandma's car' scenario. Good job on finding this one. I hope that you win the auction.

I'll bet $$ thats bull****. That works out to like 1K miles per year. . .which unless youwork in your house is bull. I was gonna say to carfax it, but he "convientantly" forgot the vin and said he's gona put it up soon, I bet he won't, ebcause they are rolled back

the car looks very clean, I wouldn't be surprised if those were actual miles. I would buy it if it weren't in Florida. Try calling the guy, he said he'll end it early for the right price. Get the VIN from him and run your CARFAX just to be certain and if it all works out you'll have a friggin awesome car that might last you another 10 years...

I just called the guy and he said the vin will be on the auction tonight. He wants $5,000-$6,000 for the car. He said an offer in that range would end the auction, but he really wants to run the auction for a few more days. Does anyone have a carfax account open now I had one that ended a week ago and really hate to pay again. If somone could help me with that I would greatly appreciate it.

I admit the car looks great but I am starting to wonder about it. The guy said last night he would put the vin on and now it has been a full day and still no vin.

5000-6000? Screw that, thats more than KBB says its worth. If you crash it insurance would give you 1/2 of that price since its a 14 year old car and mileage is usually exempt anyway. Id rather spend 50000-6000 on a newer S14.

If I want to see a clean 240, Id just open up my garage. Perfect interior and perfect paint job and I got it 1/4 of the price that he wants.

Theres worse people out there. There was an ad in the autotrader not too long ago for a 1991 Honda Civic SI hatchback. 40k original miles, garage kept, perfect inside and out. He was asking 9000 for it, yeah 9000 for a STOCK honda civic.

Well curiosity got to me so i ran the carfax on this thing. It looks clean. As advertised. The car had emission testing almost every year with the mileage increasing about 1000 miles per year. The guy that won the auction seems to have gotten himself a nice ride. (paid abit much $4800) but the condition was crazy
