The suspension needs a bit of help. The interior is nice, but the faded suede needs to be dealt with, and it'll probably never recover from the original owner smoking in it.

It does however have new cv joints and the trans was replaced at 94k. We'll see how much longer it lasts before I need to swap a manual into it.

My intent is to spend the next year or so just fixing minor little things without having to dump too much, then later diving into it head (and wallet) first.
Yea but still I prolly would have paid over twice that. You are lucky
