Bought my 97 for $7500 a few years ago with 139k miles, new wheels and tires, in overall good (driver, not perfect show car) condition. Have about 154k on it now, other than an ignition switch which I did myself for about $70, everything has been very reliable. Took it cross country 4300 miles about a year ago. There are deals around if you take your time and look, in this case the guy was getting a divorce.
