Im looking to buy this coupe. I went to check it out earlier today, it seems in good shape. It does have some rust on the door from a bodykit being removed and some cracks in the dash. A dent in the front quater panel, nothing serious but noticable. Also another bad thing is he says he hears a tick coming from the head, which i think might be the timing chain guide, but thats just from the info i got from him. I didnt here any ticking while i was driving but you never know. It shifts smooth, good throttle response. Idk let me know what you guys think...

Its just a silvia emblem that slides up and hides the key hole to the trunk.

seems odd to call it that.. oh well. Its a pretty decent looking car, if you can talk him down under $2000, I say do it!
