95 200sx se-r VVL Equipped (Barney)
Just got a new gig and I need something more professional/quiet/etc. I love the car and if I had the means I would keep it and buy a new car but unfortunately I need to sell it for a down payment. I can't take credit for the car because I bought it basically how it sits. I've done a few things to it but the major stuff was all done by the previous owner. I'm also probably missing a lot so I'll add things if I remember or am reminded.

1995 200sx se-r

The good:
The car looks great, and runs perfect. Pulls hard all the way up to 8500. The A/C blows COLD and the car rides very nice. At highway speeds the car doesn't shake and gets good gas mileage.

The bad:
There is a noise which sounds like a bad axle or perhaps wheel bearing. I haven't had the time to check it out in depth. I paid to have one side replaced and haven't had the time or money to get the other side done. I drove it to Gainesville (4hr trip each way) and up from Ft. Lauderdale (2 1/2 hour trip). I also have been using it daily for work which puts roughly 50-100 miles per day on it.

There is a dent in the passenger side door that was there when I got the car. It's annoying to me that it's there but it's far from horrible. I'll include some pictures of it.

Now for the price. $5000 FIRM. I usually don't go into detail because frankly it's really none of anyone's business. But since this a community and I feel like I can say things with people actually understanding I will. I paid $4800 for the car. Since then I've spent $300+ on getting a new alarm put in with key-less entry (previous one didn't work). I've had a STi muffler installed to quiet the exhaust down ($200). And I had one of the axles replaced and Royal Purple transmission fluid installed in the tranny ($200). With all that being said I feel that $5k is a fair price for a car as pristine as this one. There are small imperfections here and there but overall the car is in great shape.
