$400 no more. the m30 motor in those cars are very sensitive to overheating, could need alot of motor work.

:helpDepends on the condition..if it only has 90k miles the interior probably isn't too bad. If the interior and the exterior were in great condition I would pay maybe 1300-1500 TOPS. And that's if it's in pristine condition. 400 seems low-ballin' it. 400 is pretty cheap, even an M30 with a blown headgasket should be worth like 500 bucks.

How's the gearbox?

the interior looks good, needs radio. the exterior needs some rust work on the sunroof and a few other areas. its said the trans is ok...for what thats worth
