she would need to change the tires though they have 17" on them
anyways its
1997 Si Coupe
asking $6999, negotiable.
208,000 and going but no power train issues ever
5-Speed, Power Locks, Windows, Sun roof, Avitel alarm that controls door locks, Pioneer CD face off deck with remote control, Custom chrome gauge plate, shift **** and parking brake handle. 17’ Quantum Tech S10 Rims, winter tires and original hub caps incl., custom exhaust system, K&N cool air intake system, rust proofed yearly. 209,000 km, diligently maintained. Emissions tested and passed paperwork completed.
This car is in great condition, a must see.

if the car has all maintenance records, is clean and rust free, and if the motor is still good after all that mileage...and on top of that..if you sis likes it.....it doesnt make alot of sense to go lowballing.
having said that...summer is not just around the corner, so u guys can still do some searching but if she is ready...cash in hand etc...it sounds like a good buy. $5500-$6000 roughly imo.

make sure the rocker panels are clean... run a compression on the motor....
get the car inspected by a mechanic you know for years and can trust...
if all goes well... 5000 w/o the rims... or 5500 with the rims...

On hwy 2 west of brock rd. (Ajax/Pickering) on the south side there are a couple going for $4000.00 more or less... i pass them everyday...
and this is from a used car dealer... you'd at least find 1 for around 5000 with decent km's on it....
It's probably worth the drive
