Thats not a bad looking 5th Gen. I know that the auction is over, but why not call the guy and see if he will sell it for the opening price?

im with JJ on that one, it really is a nice 5th gen, really good and clean, too. the new fuel pump alone is a $600 + itam, plus it has good tires, new brakes, and new rear shocks - its a really nice car, except for the wheel bearing. i would make some calls on that, local shops and parts stores to get an idea what you are gonna pay to get it fixed, ask for price quotes on both the front and rear wheel bearings, caus the seller did not specify front or rear. i would still look into this one, its very clean & well maintained, and the new parts almost make up the starting bid.

Thats not a bad price for a real clean 5th gen. Miles arent too high either. The wheel bearing is cake to change, I wouldnt even consider taking it to a shop. Not the kind of thing that would keep me from buying that car if I wanted it.

Space, you should think about a 98-99 Z34. It would make a great Spacemobile.

I need to change my Wheel bearings. I might do a tutorial on it when i do.
