Taking Delivery
My first time buying a car on Yahoo Auctions
Exterior
There are scratches here and there, but no clear coat peeling — overall in good shape.
Interior
Looks completely stock.
The steering wheel with the EUNOS logo is a nice touch.
The seats have some wear but no tears.
The shift knob and head unit are aftermarket.
On top of that, the speakers have been swapped to aftermarket ones too, and the sound is surprisingly good.
Mechanical
Completely stock.
Looking from above, there are traces of oil spilled on the under cover.
Could be from the steering rack or the engine.
The radiator still looks like it has some life left in it, which is a big plus.
Idle is stable and it revs up without any issues.
Running strong — you wouldn’t guess the mileage from how it drives.
Undercarriage
A fair amount of rust down there.
Oil leak from where the driveshaft exits the transmission.
