A friend is offering me a '98 SE with 110k miles. initially I was excited about this car, but as I've learned what it needs, I'm getting less excited. This would be a commuter / snow bomber for me.
Stock '98 SE with 110 k miles
manual transmission
Clutch has never been done, throwout bearing is making noise
Throwing codes for knock sensor and evap sytem
Owner says brakes have been done... but vehicle doesn't stop very well
No rust, minor body damage on passenger rear door
Leather seats in good, but not perfect shape
Price $3k
Should I counter offer? Or does this have too many needs to make sense at anything near $3k? I've been quoted $1250 to have the clutch done.
