Does sound like a good price; I wanted to stay stock so I bit the bullet, spent about $900 on a new OEM muffler and tailpipe; my old ones had rotted out completely; then the tail pipe broke out of the muffler, car sounded terrible all year; then my tranny failed; just had it re-built at $1250-$1500 range; to get tranny out, cats had to come off or I said please take them off; very THICK metal, spent 2 days sanding and grinding them down to shiny metal, then used 2000 degree fire proof paint from autozone and advance autoparts to prime then paint the new and old parts; re-installed with new gaskets and stainless steel hardware; now I can't hear the car start up! silent! and shifts like a Lexus! I think the owner before me ruined the tranny towing class 3; the rotted out class 3 hitch was the first thing I ever did to the car: took it off! Taped off flex pipe and O2 sensors!
