Default Potential 1995-1998 Purchase

Are there any concerns for this generation with one over 100,000?

I think I can get one for about $7k with 139,000. A southern car that looks very clean from the pics.

I don't think the timing belt/water pump was done?

Any advice would be great!

sounds like a decent price, try to get it down a lil more but its pretty reasonable as it is.

things to look out for:
-PS system, leaks, etc...
-front strut bar bushings (creaking/groaning while driving or applying brakes)
-blown sub/speakers
-overall maint.
-trans. mount ($90 diy)

also dont forget that the timing/wp is going to be approx 1200-1500 at a shop or about 1/2 that for diy.
