What would you pay for this car?

[flyboyx]

no long diatribe here but i also think that car is worth 2600.00. anything less is a bargain for you.

Interesting catch

There are so many shady flippers on craigs, its your job to try and shoot holes in their story. I approach every car for sale as if I'm contacting a scam artist!

Motor "refresh" entails what? You sound like a used car salesman.

I don't think $2600 is unreasonable. I'd offer $2250. It's a b25 with a recent timing belt job done. Looks clean. No rust from a PNW car. Looks like a great unmolested platform.

Does the AC work?

You've been around long enough Ken, I think you know what I mean. I motors really need to be refreshed IE: bearings, seals, gaskets, valves/ guides checked after 250k. I'm not saying there aren't exceptions to the rule, but I know from my experience that an I motor over 200k could totally benefit from the afore mentioned things. Wear and tear is wear and tear. 250k is alot of miles on any motor, even an m20. An eta with its low revving nature will (in a vacume) last longer, but its still worn @ 250k.
My motor has be taken care of since 120k. That's when I bought it. The compression is still good across the boards, but with 220k on it, I wouldn't want to push its luck. Bearings wear out. It's a simple fact. That's why I am building a motor. So I can have it for another 200k.

If it doesn't consume oil, leak from the seals/gasket, or spew it into the intake boot, I'd just drive it as is... as long as compression is good.

If the guy has every record, I'd only assume that it's well maintained.
