ummm... try to make sure that the head gasket has been replaced. at 140k its do or die, either its been done in the last 20k miles and the guy is just tryin to sell it, or it needs to be done now and he cant afford the 3500 to do it. you REALLY need to get it inspected by a mechanic to make sure youre not gettin f'ed on the head gasket/wiring harness.... do not ignore this advice the head gasket goes on these i6 motors like clockwork and you dont want to be stuck with a huge repair bill after buying the car for an above average price.

hey ricco, how dark is your tint, it looks pretty good. i just got my car tinted a couple days ago, only paid 180 bucks but from a really good quality tint shop that several people referred me to. i got 35 percent and i think it looks pretty good, especially at night. 35 percent is the legal limit here in Ga so i went with the safe number.

also how much did you pay to have your wheels powdercoated black?

sounds like airplane
if 35 is the limit putting 35 on your car is not safe- you will easily meter out under 30 with that and can still be ticketed...

i know the windows have a light tint inside, but the guy didnt have any lighter tint. this place has been operating for over 15 years in the middle of mexiville and he kept asking me if i wanted a 5% tint. i told him to calm down and just slap the 35 on there

YEah Lenny we gotta check that out. Do you mind calling him. or trying to find out if that was replaced. because if not that could EASILY knock off 1k from the price

thats a negative. you take 3k off the price. i paid 6500 for my 97 c280 with 90k miles back in 2005. the car was worth 10k but due to the need for a headgasket job, i haggled my way down to 6500 so i could pay for the headgasket to be replaced and pay a total 10k for a really nice c280.

i even had the head rebuilt by a performance shop when my mechanic had the motor all apart, they polished and cleaned it all up, in addition to grinding the head down a couple mm to bump the compression ratio up slightly. it was a very smooth running car to say the least

well if thats true (you should still have a mechanic confirm via pre-buy inspection) then you are good to go
