          well, how rusty is it, and is it stock? Just for reference i paid $6k for mine in 2002, 100% stock and pretty much no rust with 99k miles on it. Also, just remember that your gonna end up spending alot of money on it if you want to play. Like$1500 just to get it up to par. Id say just keep working on the 7, these things are kinda nightmares to own at their age. I would need to see some pics of it. But if you buy it, you know where to look for advice!

            if i buy it, i would keep it mostly stock... no rust... and with this car i expect to pay to play, being that there are so few of them....
            as for the seven, its basically done... just awaiting the motor, and i need a cam to complete the motor...

                well if it isnt rusty, then go for it, thats a good price. I would be willing to help you out with it. Hell i was going 113mph with just a few bolt ons and pump gas with mine. And the stuff isnt bad to buy, just your regular fuel pump, injectors, chip K&N, exhaust, etc. Just that if they havent been maintained well, they tend to break alot. BUT i would LOVE for someone to get another GN to play with.

                  How many miles? If you don't get it, I might be interested. My fiance might just kill me, but whatever, thats ok.

PM me about location and such if thats a good deal, we can take mine out there :icon_thumright: Plus i wouldnt mind checking out that 7 pretty soon. BTW, i highly suggest buying it if it has 100k or less, if you can swing it.

                                        well depending on what you need, there are a few different places to buy stuff. I usually shop at www.fullthrottlespeed.com , as mike is a very helpful guy, and its cheap. just do me a favor and ask before you buy. those cars are all about combination, and 1 wrong part can just ruin the power levels.
