I paid $3200 for this, 05 G35 w/ sports/tire package w/ vlsd. Has 140k miles and has new radiator, gaskets, new bushings, oil changed, fluids done and all that good shit by the previous owner prior to selling (had receipts).

No oil leaks and no smoke, only issue is a wanky gas reading and shitty paint. There is already an intake installed and I am going to get the plenum spacer done this week (the box said 13 hp tho). Will do HFC and AF tune when all is set and done

How'd I do?

kek, no. Most FD's have had a rebuild or replacement by now, and many of the ones that haven't will need it soon. I had a brand new engine that would have gone into an '02 FD installed last May.

>>17565761
The engine bay does get hot as fuck, but anyone who has problems with their interior heating up probably modified their exhaust incorrectly. One of the most common mods is replacing the stock pre-cat with a straight downpipe, and if you don't apply some kind of insulation or heat shielding to the downpipe, heat will get into the interior via the transmission tunnel and passenger floorboard. That stock pre-cat has tons of heat shielding meant to prevent this.

I had an '06 STi I got at an auction.

I tuned it, ran 19 psi, redlined daily, street raced, took it to drag strips, did donuts, etc.

I put over 65k miles on it and sold it for $20k (only $2k less than I got it for) six years later.

I did maintain it well and kept it clean though, pic related right before selling it.

I kind of want to but I'm afraid it'll be a shitty impulse buy. The guy already lowered the price $200, I've repaired similar damage before, and there seem to be plenty of potential parts donors at local junkyards. I'd have to drive it about an hour and a half to get it back to my place, but bungee cords seem like they'd help, and according to the seller it does run. Should I or should I not, dealhunters of /o/?

My point is if you are so poor that you make mental acrobatics to justify a 140k car rather than something more economical, maybe you should have gotten something else while you saved up for something that wasn't in that state.

You can doubt it all you want mang, thats a bone-stick 0-60. With the mods I have its easily faster. A y-pipe alone nets you 20hp in these cars due to super-restrictive precats

All I heard from him was, "wah, I paid the same amount of money on my 03 Civic. Its not fair people can have better cars then me"

>>17567862
Mine was the GLE, which I believe was the highest trim. Heated seats, adjustable steering wheel and seats, leather everything, etc. And it was still surprisingly fast with all the luxury nicks and nacks. It is definitely a hidden gem, the biggest problem is the engine is too damn big. There isn't too much room under its massive hood.

There's an 04-05 Pontiac GTO for sale here that's gotten new heads for the LS1 engine, new front tires and slightly used rear, street drag tires(both are Nitto), and new leather interior. Guy's selling it for 7k, but it's an autotragic(guy says he's got a new, drag racing transmission in it though)
Been looking at it for almost a year now just wondering if it'd be a good buy and why no one else has scooped it up yet

I seriously dont understand how i see soo many people on here say they bought a car with 100k 120k 130k+ miles on it. Arnt you guys worried like hell that its gonna crap out in you in the near future? You dont know how it was driven or taken care of. I saw the other day an anon bought a car with almost 200k on it. Thats just insane to me. I couldnt trust it. Im actually in the market for a used car and anything even close to 100k miles im scared to buy. Ideally 70k or less and ill feel somewhat at ease.

Im not bashing anyone just wonder if it deters you guys at all and why or why not.

>>17572221
the "what if it breaks?" anxiety goes away when you have the confidence that you can fix whatever breaks. Then the market opens up quite a bit.
The only thing i look for is super high mileage cars (300k +) because the physical chassis gets stressed and loses structural integrity and you cant really fix that bar stitch welding or some shit

It depends on the car, if a car has 55k miles but the owner thrashed it and did 10k oil changes i wouldent buy it. I bought a trans am once for $800 that had 245k miles on it, thing ran great and had plenty of life left in it. The point is if a car has been maintained mileage can be just a number, im only warey of miles when the car has an automatic transmission.

That's a light damage, don't worry.
This gen is famous for the repair cost when you hit something with 2mph, everything gets smashed.
I'm a 190 owner, so feel free to ask me stuff about it, in the past I had some w124s, so I kind of know what's going on.
The suspension seems perfect and if you manage to sell those shit rims to some Vagos morons, you could even manage to repair the front. The engine works at 600rpm at full oil pressure, which is important. Look out for the coolant collector - if it's even a bit black, the engine mixes the oil and the coolant, which means a head gasket repair. Take it for a test drive, if the gearbox changes gears nicely and without any kicks, you are fine for the future. Those headlights are utter shit, so no wonder the owner hit something with the car. Check for rust on the jack holes, they are known rust collectors. Leather seats, looks like it has AC, so give it a try. For that price I would buy it, the repairs could be done at home if you have any basic mechanical knowledge.
>>
>>17572808
Well, it might be worth the trip just to take a look. Like I said, I've got experience with this kind of stuff, and there's lots of w124s at my local junkyards. He says it's got a bad alignment, will that be an issue for an hour and a half drive? If I keep it slow?
>>
>>17573298
