Need your opinion

There's this guy that is selling a 97 Eclipse GS-T.it has 90k miles and has a few dents and the tailighs are cracked.He wants 9,000 for it.Do you guys think its a good deal?Also i dont know much about turbos but do you have to change the oil in them .Becouse on superchargers u do.

[Marc-OS]

That's too much $$$ for it, $6-7k sounds about right. With turbo's you should just change the oil probably every 2000miles, and it's not turbo oil, the turbo uses the oil from the engine, so it's nothing special, just a standard oil change.

Thats too much man.I'd give him 4-5 g's for it. I would never pay that much for a dsm that has that kind of miles. Shit i'd never buy a dsm in a first place.

feel free to ask here BUT, really you should ask where eclipse owners can give you a factual answer....rather than a bunch of civic owners that will give you opinion (civic rules bay-be)

personally i think 9 is too much for 90,000 mi, some dents, and cracked tail light.

you have any idea what you can do to a civic for 9 g's? to start you can get a mint one within the 90,000mi range for $3000, easy. imagine what you could do to the engine with the $6000 left. turbo ls/vtec

he must be thinking that just becuae its a turbo he's gonna get big bucks for it.but yea i wouldnt buy the car unless you can talk him down to like 4-6k$

That price is a bit high if the car was in perfect condition. The oil has to be changed like any car regardless if it has a turbo on it or not. The only thing that you should make sure of is that the filter is primed before its put back on so the turbos get oil immediately.
