I definatly think 5K is way too much for a 95 w/ 150K miles. I would personally offer $3700 . And make sure she got the timing belt changed twice. Walk away if she didn't. A lot of shit can go wrong with a car with 150K on the odometer. It all depends on the condition.. how is the tranny, how is the interior/exterior how are thr tires, etc... And anyway, you'll need the money for the new engine.

If you do get a new engine get a stroker kit and bore out the cylinders. It's a good time for that.


We need a lot more info than what you gave us.

I agree 5k is too much. I paid 4500 for my 95 with only 67k on it.
