well i bought my 93 with some flaws for 5000 so, a 95 for 5500 isn't too bad. my fixes were a little cheaper than yours though. add in what it'll cost to fix all the stuff wrong with it. figure between the windshield and radiator your lookin at 400-500 bucks? i dunno what kinda tune up, but if your talking oil change, filter, air filter, plugs wires, etc, i'd say total your around 6200? i dunno. i'd say it was an ok deal. i woulda tried dropping the price a little cuz of the high miles.

thats pricy.. but it is a 5 spd ;]

radiator will cost around 110? i think from radiatorbarn.com really quality stuff

windshield will cost more contact the vendors..

Tuneup.. i think its
timingbelt, oil change, water pump, tranny oil change, drive belt, new pulleys n ****.. right? well that will cost NO LESS than 800 since these parts ARE expensive

Good luck!

12 yr old, 220K.

I don't think it's 5500 unless the rest of the car is in absolute mint condition, whether it is 5 speed or not.

Not bad, I just replaced my Radiator with a Fluydine. If you need a stock one that is in great condition (barely 100K) I'll sell you it for 50 bucks shipped.
