Great car. They are fun to drive. & I see that its a stick. The sticks are hard to find. I have an auto. $6500 sounds goods for a stick with 90k. And don't do anything but maintain the car. The were only but 600 TA in 91 made & 700 TA in 92 made and not many were sticks.

nice car. just dont let anyone talk you into trying to tint the back with regular tint. They use to make a spray on tint, but I dont know if the would work on a vert or not. I think J.C. whitney has the spray tint.

As far as suggestions. Maybe a set o nice rims. Dont get me wrong, I like the stock ones, but white looks so good with polished or chrome rims. I would definatly keep the factory ones. Just store them if you get new rims.

again, nice car.

No No man thats Sonic can't you see the breakfast menu on the right hand side? Anyways thats a nice car. Take that dealership sticker off for one thing and does everyone like those style rims? Kinda too dark for me. Thats a sweet ride though and I see lots of mods to come in the future.

You picked up a nice ride. Now don't go messing with it and turn it into a heap like so many people do. You paid good money for it and it is rare, so just keep it clean and stock!
