Hey Noir:
Hah! Beat you to the 97 as well. I went down to Sarasota today to look at that one. Much nicer than the 96 but the only hang up is the price. I think my car is sold and I would like to make an offer on it if ya'll don't mind. I may work out a deal with them.
Issues with this car:
1) Front rotors need to be turned/replaced
2) Stereo knob loose
3) Front bumper has fading and lots of marks on it. A bra or repaint would help it.
4) Big door ding on passenger side
5) Power mirrors didn't work very well
6) Alarm system broken along with keyless entry. No remotes
Otherwise, a nice, clean, lady driven car. I got to talk to the owner and she's really cool (I told her about this board, so if she's on here...HELLO).
Anyway, so I may have a '97 SVX next week. My Elantra is now almost sold, I'll get a deposit tomorrow. So back off everyone and leave this one to me
I want to be a member of the club again!
