The price sounds like it's in the ballpark if eveything checks out; a PPI is important to get.
Also, look at the sticker at the underside of the drivers door and find out the build date (ie.. 01/99). If it has been built between--roughly--10/1/98 and 3/31/99, it will be important to know if the engine has been replaced since that is the range of the "sleeved engine" fiasco.
Some think this is no big deal and all of the bad engines from this group have gone bang by now, but I continue to see reports of guys with '99's in this range that have engine failures.
Regarding the '00' S, I would think an S of that year would run at least +$5K more than the car you're considering.
BTW, I think Arena red is a great color.
Good luck with it.
