    I wanna hear more.

    I expected several "drive it like you stole it"
    but seriously, aside from pretending it's grand theft auto anything I can do to find out if it's about pop a motor or drop a tranny?

    He had an accident in the VX he was test driving ... he broke it ... he bought it.

    I think he was going to get it anyway because it had tranny issues & was looking for a 5sp swap project vehicle.

    Not the ideal car buying experience for sure. It did work out fine though, the guy was cool about it, even drove me to the airport after we signed the paperwork. It's been in only one accident and I know firsthand it wasn't that serious, which I figure is better than hoping a PO's wreck was as "minor" as they claim.
