Potentially picking up a high mile 98
#2
Sounds pretty minor work really if the interior is 10/10 and only has tiny rust, thats a good price.
Hopefully just an exhaust gasket, timing belt, plugs if they are misfiring, bit of body work and you'll have a nice car, 98+ cars are sweet.

Sounds like a decent deal. But don't forget cam/crank seals. Most likely they weren't done last time. Just did this to my LS. Both cams seal were leaking badly at 242K miles. Fortunately I did it myself for under $100. For you cam seal replacement is more involved because of vvt-i. You are nuts if you're planning to take to mechanic for repairs.

KA8 - I have not owned a '98, but I understand that the cams have to be removed to replace the seals (not like your '93). So unless they are leaking, they are not usually replaced.

A Gen 2.5 for 2k?
Sounds like a screaming deal to me. You can barely find Gen 1s for that in my region!
The rust always scares the #$%^ outta me, but the price is right and the LS might be the only car in the World save for an F150 that I would buy with 200k+ on the ODO.
