$2,000 is peanuts on a newly acquired 14 year old used lux V8 car, we warn perspective buyers to plan on $3,000* assuming the paid expert prebuy $200 inspection shows Good- Excellant [nothing unusal wrong**].
Luckily the 1994 is the most reliable of the 90-96 series but body control modules and data links give many fits.
*Based on MSRP parts and $85 per shop hour.
** We have seen excellant paint and interior Q that need $10,000 in repairs where it cranks , drives, and most things kinda work [to the untrained {typical car buyer} eye].
Remember used cars are sold because the owner gets the bad news that the car needs serious work and decides to dump it.
