I'd talk him down, get it shipped, and strip it for everything I'd want and sell the rest for a little cash

Maybe $4,000 but that thing is pretty beat. With the rough shape it is in and the blown engine I am sure that car has had 35,000 of the roughest miles....

Nose is beat. Interior is beat. Not even sure that's the original interior. 4 grand is what I'd offer.

lol 6 grand, busted right up AND it needs an LNF engine? **** that, I wouldn't even give him 4 grand for that, you can get a working turbo cobalt for a few grand more and not have to deal with any of the skeletons that thing probably has in its trunk.

i was looking more at the hits on the front as to be a result of the blown motor... chances are they nailed something just wrong in that instance

Lol he must use his brakes a lot... jk But honestly I don't think it looks that bad he did add a exhaust so he can't be that stupid, the only thing phishy is the price I mean come on you KNOW 6k is cheap for 35k miles on it. I am just curious to what's wrong with it.

Adding an exhaust isn't that difficult man... Anyone can do that

I wouldn't buy this car unless I absolutely needed a drastic amount of parts or was going to completely redo this car. It almost looks like the lip is cracked or broken. He must've slammed into something or multiple things lol.

Is it just me or does it seem to be missing the intercooler. I know it doesn't picture it directly but I think you should be able to see even at those angles.

The lower grille is gone, but I'm not so sure you would see the stock intercooler from those angles as it's pretty thin and well back behind the bumper bar. An aftermarket one you would see for sure. Mine sits right up tight against the lower grille, you can't miss it.

if you can get that car for 5k, buy a motor for 2. repaint the front bumper for 500, that would be worth it.
