What to look for in a 200SX...going to look at one tomorrow.

[EvillE423]

As the title states I'm going tomorrow to look at one and was wanting to know of there are any problem areas I need to look out for. It's a '98 with 150,000 miles on it. Girlfriend is looking for something good on gas and small to get her back and forth to campus. They are asking $2,900 for it but I think that's the finance price. I'm a cash customer so I'm sure I can talk 'em down. Help me out NICO please!

Typical 12yr old car stuff. Listen for funny noises, check for rust. The GA16 (I'm assuming) was pretty problem free (the SR was too for that matter).

A tad late, but oil leaks seem to be a bit of a common issue with the GA's. Most of what I've seen/heard is due to the gasket.
