UPDATE:

Went and checked out the car last night. Body of the car is VERY straight. Car has a ton of chips all over it. The engine lid looked the way the hood should have with the amount of chips on it. The front end was super clean but I could tell had been repainted. Car had a short throw installed, Borla exhaust. Interior had some holes in the seats and overall fade. Cosmetically I would give the car a 6.5 overall. The engine was the other story. At idle there was an odd rattle (could have been a shield but I could not locate it). When I drove it, the car seemed solid. At full throttle the car was not as healthy (quick) as the others I have driven. When pulling back into the lot there were a lot of ticking noises coming from the lifters. Overall it was certainly an $8000 dollar car but not the solid car I was hoping it to be. Sounded like the engine had some more issues that needed to be worked out.
