Wow. I didn't think it would go for so cheap. Ugly spoiler, but that can be removed. Otherwise, looks clean.

You'd think that such a rare color would get more.

The car has been outside for a long time.

Somebody got a killer deal.
With a little love and elbow grease it could be a beautiful car again.

I kind of understand. Needs new paint, potential spoiler removal, Engine refinshing and new weather stripping. So it needs more than 6k of work or not and just enjoy it as is.

I see it had no reserve. Interesting.

I myself thought that was a far price for the car with the shape that it was in.

The car exterior is rough if you look at uneven fender vent/hood body lines and faded rear quarter... Add in the owner advertises body repair at 70% off ( search his ph #: 702-624-0530) and no vin # in listing... + 0 eBay reputation rating; conclude car was in a wreck and he's unloading it...

Your right...it always pays to do a little detective work like googling phone #'s and names to see what comes up....lots of red flags on this one......but that color is still my favorite...wish it was available in 95.

1 owner, not ORIGINAL owner. The car has been pushed around CA, AZ, NV, UT for months, I think it was originally from San Diego area and sold for around $11k. Not a bad price for a steel blue (or a 91 for that matter), but the number of bids seems a little fishy, and odds are it will be back on the market by Tuesday.

So, not sold on e-bay... The deal fell thru likely due to car's condition, hidden history, and now back on Craigslist:
