    Maybe it's not the car I was thinking about, but I know I just saw those pictures in the past day or so.

    Cmoon... soo easy to put a link in :-P

    Looks amazing, I would go for it if i had the money... Meaning - $7000 to get the car and about $3000 to make it perfect, rebuild engine, etc... (Also I would try to talk him down... mor money for the repairs)

    The ad said it had an accident before, and the wheels are straight, but they can still be misaligned (like on my 525I that i got that had an accident happen to it.) If you are tempted, check it out and see if everything in the interior is straight and the seats fit fine... if they dont then it is probably going to be out of a perfect alignment. Naturally it is all up to you, so decide whether you want to do that or not. Also - if an engine eats oil it will most likely need a rebuild in the future (unless its a rotary engine ).

    *Note if the accident has to be mentioned then the car has a rebuilt title most likely.

    I think the head gasket alone is like $3000.

    Robin's right. Maintenance and fixes are alot more expensive on this car. $7000 is pretty low, so expect to probably sink in quite a bit more

    If your interested - have an independent shop scope it out first. Those are awesome - but the $$$ rises quickly.
