a. is this a decent buy for ~2500
b. is this a decent car with the 2.6 and can I cruise at 70-75 without issues? or is the 3.0 better?
c. anything I should look out for?
There is also a 97 320 that I found too, but need to talk to the guy first as he's only asking a little over 3K for it and it looks in good shape. Says it has rust, but i don't care about looks. I need something to get a year or 2 out of at least and something I can do some small road trips in.
Any advice I know you guys are great.
Thanks Paul

what about service records...?
it would be a good buy with them... without.... 2200
you have to have ice cold air...other wise it's a 1000 car
the 2.6 is fine ....it's a little slower out of the gate, but that's about it...gas mileage is the same....
i would never buy a car with rust.... Rust never sleeps
