I personally wouldnt pay that much due to the mileage, but the car does look pretty clean.

Looks pretty good from the outside. It appears fair on the inside. I would say keep looking due to the mileage, unless the owner can prove alot of preventive maintenance was done, and done correctly!

I'd hold out for something with 100-125k miles at that price.

I don't think it's THAT much of a deal, but your market in CA is wide open. It's a great looking car, see how low they will go.

Fake kit with laughable fitment = Fail.
Wheels = Fail.
Mileage = Fail.
Incorrectly fitting rear truck indicative of rear-end collision history = Fail.
Price = Fail.

Stay away.
