I don't understand everyone's negativity here. I really don't.

Like any car that's 15 years old and 160k miles on it, you're going to need to look it over. But I say "posh" to those telling you to walk away. In my opinion, buy the one that makes your heart pump. If it's not emotionally calling you, then look for another. But if it is, and it seems reasonably maintained (I couldn't care less about a paper trail or a maintenance history: look at its present condition) then buy it.

Here's the deal: this isn't a collectible. This isn't an investment car. It's a disposable fun machine. Those talking about service histories, ppi's, etc, are (in my opinion) being a little unrealistic, for a $7100 car.

I bought my '03 S with 147k miles on it for $6800 about 18 months ago. I've had track-breakage, but that doesn't really have anything to do with the car's condition.... it's part of how hard I'm tracking it.
