97 eclipse gsx: good buy?
forgive me but im fairly new to the import/car world in general. im very interested in buying a (u guessed it) 97 eclipse gsx. its only got 80,000 miles on it but the guy says it wont stop overheating. he's only asking 900 so im leaning more towards the "yes" side.
please, any helpful advice would be much appreciated. thanks  |

Re: 97 eclipse gsx: good buy?
Wow that's actually a really good deal if it's in great shape other than the overheating. The overheating could be something quite simple like a thermostat, waterpump, or at worst a bad headgasket. Regardless, I would say it's worth much more than 900 with the low mileage. Perhaps you should first inquire as to what he may have already done to try and fix the overheating problem. If he has already replaced the mentioned parts then it could be a little iffy...

Re: 97 eclipse gsx: good buy?
Bummer... I was also going to point you to an older thread that covered all causes for overheating so you could go over it. Keep looking around. There's always deals to be had when it comes to these cars!
