new car

hi every one im new but ill talk about that later....

im sick of my 01 eclipse gt and have been looking at getting a new car for a long time. i find that the rx-8 is the most practical mostly due to the fact of it has a back seat. so with that said.
i make a living off ebay motors and am constantly searching around for cars also. i just recently came accross this

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Showa...QQcmdZViewItem

it says their reserve is set at $25,000. i really dont want to spend more then $20,000. would you spend the extra 5k? is it worth it? thank you.

First thing I would do if I won that auction is rip all those stupid stickers off. My 04 8 is modded just as much as that and I couldn't imagine getting $30k for it. Save your money and don't buy a "show car".

yes the stickers would go and so wouldnt the wing plus im not a big fan of vertical doors but idk if i threw a decal of my other company and took it to car shows mabey it might help. i do understand the car could have problems but. I like the body kit. like the wheels. if you go to the website and look at the interior. Its amazing. plus i would want to turbo it anyway.

20k is barely enough to get you a used 8, this one is heavily modded. IMHO this is a steal. So, is it worh it HELL YEAAAAAAAH.

its is a nice car. somethings i dont like but thats my opinion. i contacted the seller but no reply yet. hopeing this is real. if so ill jump on it while i can. and not let another del pass me by (i had the chance to buy a 350z for only 6k last year. low miles and great condition. owner died and thats all he had left on it. my mom is friends with the owners sister or something and she told me about it.)

seems like a great deal if everything checks out mechanically.
