$500 Del Sol?

[Rajiv]

I saw this add on craiglist and just emailed the guy. He claims it runs in his add and is $500. It's a '94 and in my email I asked if there was rust on frame (I am in Michigan). Anyway, assuming it runs and doesn't have rust on frame, is it worth getting or will it have so many problems that it would become a money pit? I guess what I'm asking is, what are the common problems with one of these? Thanks for any help in advance.

EDIT: I just checked my email and there was a reply. It seems rusty around antenna, but the pictures were HUGE and hard to see. It has some dents, and she didn't tell me if the frame was rusted. She also said she "doesn't know what is mechanically wrong with it." Anyway, how cheap can I get one of these that isn't too bad?

the best way not to get screwed is to just go and look at it.... hem and haw over every little thing and try and talk her down to a lower price... hondas will last forever with just basic maintainence.. it seems worth 500 to me... but like i said, the only way to know, is to just go look and drive it
