This is a repost from the Stealth forum i know its in the wrong place but im just looking to get some information here.

I found a 92 stealth twin turbo in the local newspaper
its a 5 spd with 75k leather and it says loaded
Asking price is 5,900 is this a good price or should i be worried about the car being worked over and destroyed?

Please can i have a lil bit of help here

Check the car out for yourself. Examine anything you can think of, go from bumper to bumper seeing for any scratces, chips, rust. Then turn it on, make sure its running well



All I can think of for now

Well if you are really considering getting the car then ask the guy if you and him can go down to a mechanic you like and have them do a complete run through. Thats what my dad does before he buys any car. Trust me its worth the money and effort, its saved us from buying some real lemons.

Thanks for the replys guys. That was my basic plan, and i was going to use the how to buy a used car thing from cars.com as my guidline. They mention all of that in there its a really helpful site.

alright now that its been moved can anyone in here give me any additional information?

A couple of things to look for, is if there is any fluids that have dripped on the ground where he parks the car. Make sure you start the car after the engined has cooled off. You'll get a better idea if there are any oil leaks or the lifters are clogged (not to big a deal, really). If you have a lot of smoke on ignition, you'll see the problem. If you hear a lot of tapping, you know the lifters are clogged and might be able to haggle the price down a few hundred.

Drive the car and shift hard up and down the line. Any grinding thats not caused by a bad shift will let you know that the syncros are getting worn. Press every button. Turn every knob. Flip every switch. If everything works, then that price isn't to bad.

Thanks Yogs.
