That is a great price. I would buy it. A full exhaust, wheels and tires, and 4th gen leather seats would cost you near $3k alone.

i think i might go for it..the only thing that bothers me about it, is its gotta slight rattle from time 2 time near front belts and pullys. im hoping its not the water pump..it doesnt get all that hot. looks like hes got a aluminum hose thing goin from the air duct to the headers that might be the rattle..but..i dunno..hes got more metal wireharness things too..but..other than that..the shift kit scared me at 1st cuz it shifts at high rpm and HARD too...but..when i got back i asked and he said shift kit (duh shoulda known) gonna have a few more people check it out, get more opinions on here..and maybe ill get it...****...yeah im prolly definitly buying it as it is
