It will serve as a A to B car while i live Here in college but I also like a little speed as well and a little something to do In my spare time In college (Summers ect.). I have moderate expirience with them as well seeing as how A 93 Max was my 1st car. However. There Is another factor to this equasion. The second car I am looking at is a 90 Max with 106k on the car (no engine swap). The asking price for this one is only 800. No brainer right??? WRONG..two things with this car...The current owner broke the key off in the ignition. While trying to get it out, they ruined the housing. Supposedly they do have a replacement for it. Just haven't put it in. The shifting mount was loose so it wouldn't go into gear,and suposedly it will be replaced as well. If all of this dosent happen and they dont replace or fix any of this stuff, would I still be better off going with This or the other? and Either way how much would it be to fix a shifting mount and ignition housing?? Thanks in advance..
99.9% chance BS that the first one has a 99 motor..... see if you can get pics of that car's engine bay to prove it REALLY has a VQ. Because it's not your average backyard mechanic's engine swap.
