Looks like a very decent car and good price, considering it's a Canada car. One question: Is it a US imported car? For some reason I was thinking no airbags unil 92 in Canada, but maybe it was 91 and just the 90 didn't have the bag.

Assuming the car is as described, that's a screaming deal. How are you getting it back to PA?

I thought so! The seller would rather have payment in person (as would I), so I don't have to transfer any funds until I'm there. So...if it's not as described, I'm only out a ticket.

I'm going to fly out and drive her back.

Wow, I was thinking about bidding on that one too! Glad I didn't. Good luck with it!

Seller stated it was already done when I asked, but you're right, if its not I will.

The 1.8 diff and axels will be bolted on, as opposed to splined, right?

Anyway to verify if its a Torsen or open?

Folks, this is why you return your car to stock before you sell it
