Nice! I bought a car for my daughter on Ebay last year, a Honda del Sol. Looked fantastic, beautiful car, when we went to get it, a 4 hour drive, my husband took it out for a test drive and the engine almost blew while he was test driving it. He didnt think he would make it back to the place we were going to get it from. Needless to say, we didnt buy it, the guy was so embarrassed and we were relieved that it happened before we bought it, we would have been stuck with it if we had. Just be careful of the mechanical condition when you go to pick it up! Its a beautiful car.

That's a problem with any car you purchase used. Ours looks beautiful, but little did we know the head was going. Hubby just replaced it so it looks beautiful and runs beautiful now.

You should have seen the vehicles we had to go through, though. What do people do to their cars???????

Lhezza, I just realized my post could be taken in a negative way. It wasn't meant to be that. I LOVE that car and hope it's a good purchase for you. Nice ride!

Lizza, that's one horny car!!!!

But I have to say, I think you're WELL brave buying a car on Ebay - I imagine you must be a practiced Ebayer to do that, I can't even get the hang of how the darned thing works!!!

TTMom - no worries.....

I did take the car for a test drive and did have Nick (my car expert) look it over prior to bidding..... The owner bought a
brand new BMW and didn't need this one anymore!

Going to LA to pick it up today!

very nice, once you go German you'll never go back.

I picked up my 92 VW corrado the other day to add to my collection of 92' VW golf and 2003 VW golf VR6
