Car is worth 2300-2500 tops in mint condition. No matter how nice it is, it wont change the fact that its a ka24e powered base model with no-options.

yeah tell him 2500...that is sweet tho that he has the black interior...but play off stuff like

"oh well it dosent even have a sunroof or power windows!"

and

"hm...you know, even though the motor dosent have alot of miles, the body still has alot, and i know that it will need work in the near future...i mean i will probably have to get all new suspension parts from the dealer and that will cost alot"

*snicker*

just to explain that post, all the things i listed as complaints were either things i dont really care for, or things i replaced immediately when i got my car.

for example, no sunroof=better body stiffnesspower windows+locks=more wire and electronics to go wrongold springs and shocks=uhh...the stuff i throw out when i get my aftermarket suspension? duh...same goes for old tension rods (swapped for pillowmount adjustables) etc...
