Ok so I found a 99 box with 38k miles on it on autotrader for 16,988.... I then called and asked about it and where it was located (jacksonville) and for pics and a carfax.

After everything came up clean I told them the add said it was 15,988 knowing it really said 16,988 but I called their bluff just to see if theyd cave. They did.

So I get to jacksonville 4 days later after sending them a deposit to find the car wont start. No nothing. Turns out to be fault ignition switch and i spend 2 more days there and tell them ill pay 15k or ill leave.

They sold it to me for 15 k. Its clean as hell. I have a crappy pic of it. It also has a new top.
