looks nice. not my flavor, but if ti is a solid car, it could be fun.
pretty sure it is a typo and he wants 8000 not 800.
for $800 id buy it strip the brakes off and give it away to someone who wanted to deal with it.
BTW... bring a friend, and a gun.
lots of times these "too good deals" are setups for a robbery.

Cut n paste old listing
"Smogged less than 2 weeks ago with flying colors and registered 'till June 2004. "
means the ad must be 4 years old or so.
I change my advice...
take a friend with a SHOTGUN and agree to meet in the front of a parking lot. not the back, the front. where all the people are. carry a pistol yourself.

Wow, I'm glad I live in hicksville Canada where the worst thing that can happen is someone stealing your returnable bottles from the curb on garbage day. Damn, I know plenty of people who never lock their doors and leave their keys in the car so they won't get lost.

I used to follow my friends in my 4x4 and park a short distance away where I could watch over them.
nothing overtly suspicious about someone in a 4x4 having a gun rack w/ guns in it.

You know, I saw the pics in that CL post and immediately thought "I've seen that car posted on BF.c before" I'd be SUPER wary of going out there, there's plenty of e28s in the world, not too many of them are $1000 cars anymore.
