I am looking at a 1995 SSEi. The guy claims the body is good with no dents and very minimal rust. He also claims that everything works. 185,000 miles and he said the intake gaskets were done at least once.
Is this car worth $1500?
If the body is in as good as shape as it sounds to be I think it might be worth it but I wont know until I go and take a look
Oh and did I mention it was Red one of my favorite colors

I wouldn't pay more than the cost of one year insurance on it.

If it's as clean as he says it is and the engine sounds good and it shifts good, I'd talk him down to $1200.... It IS below KBB, but it depends on the general shape of the car.

Don't let the fact that you like the color, or the engine, distract you from the problems the car may have. If it has obvious rust issues, etc., then it doesn't matter if it's your dream color/engine/interior combination. Let it go. There will be others, and you just have to wait.
