That first add sounds like a good deal, but I'd run a Carfax report on it to make sure it hasn't been wrecked and such. I paid $9,018 for my used '01 4-banger Sport, and it had 49,000 miles on it at the time. It runs great though and I haven't had a problem. I'd definately have a look at the first one.

the only problem i see with the first one is that it is a auto, thats why im a little hesatent on that one. i would prefer a manual car jsut because. but do you have any idea on how much would it be to change it to a manual if i got the first one?

probably a [website edit] load. If you want a manual, I'd hold off and see what else comes along. Make sure you get what you want if you're gonna spend so much money on it. My purchase has left me wishing I'd bought a 3.9 instead of 2.5. I wouldn't try the conversion though. I'd think it'd be more trouble than it'd be worth.
