The asking price is 13K obo I am hoping to get it for 10-11K.



Let me know your thoughts.



Thanks.
If it's a manual trans, you want to ensure it shifts smoothly through all the gears. I would recommend driving it and aggressively shifting all the way up to sixth. Ensure the clutch pedal feel is smooth, not sloppy and the pedal doesn't get stuck on the floor. Also ensure there is no grinding at all while shifting.

The transmission synchros are known to go which will cause the grinding. The concentric slave cylinder (csc) is also a weak point and will cause the clutch pedal to not spring back up from the floor. These are common issues.
