that does sound like a decent price. there was a 98 se here w/ 40k miles at a dealership for $13,500. i waited a long time for mine n was looking everywhere n one day i was the first person to reply to an ad on www.autotrader.com n got my 96 (not se) w/ 20k miles on it for $7500 w/ some little mods on it, but i'm pretty much changing the mods he had on there (which aren't really performance mods). check autotrader.com though to c if there's nething in ur area, i think it's better than ebay since they're just ads not auctions.

and don't pay more for a car that has more expensive mods on it cuz if they like driving enuff to put all them mods on it, they prolly like driving aggressively and ur body would prolly be all torn up from drifting or something, try to find something sold by an old lethargic granny, yupyup

i fully agree w/ that, i've seen many ppl that ran into nothing but problems when they bought a heavily modded car. mods don't always have to be bad though. like my car, i don't care if i say it now, had hydraulics when i bought it. well it's in the shop right now being taken out n i'm getting my intrax springs n tokico shocks & struts being put on, n i'm profiting from the hydro's that i'm selling n also the rims that were on my car so i can put it towards what i want to buy w/ the money. so sometimes u can look for a car w/ mods n profit from them.
