price isn't bad for a 4.5 gen...whats the kbb?

Lots of mods...which MAY mean that it was drivin the **** out of....

and burning oil w/ only 122K isn't a very good sign...

Looks killer tho

Do you know what would cause it to burn so much oil or how much it would be to fix it?It is just such a nice looking car.

yeah it does look really nice, but a quart of oil isnt a small amount, i would stay away from it, try to find one with lower miles

I don't know about where your from, but around me it's hard to find a pre02 car with low miles...

maybe z28pete can help you out w/ burning oil...as far as i know it can be many things...piston rings? and other interanal wear...
