ok ive had my eyes peeled for a dailydriver, or just a driving car, im not given up on the mazda by a long shot, but just lookin for somthin fun, i looked at a MR2 but they wouldnt come down enough, now im seein this '1990 240 coupe, 5speed 140k miles' i asked the guy about it because he finally admited to the smoking and he said "compression is all the same across the board,#4 is a little lower. ummm it smokes on accel and seems to lag in power as well." he wants $1K im thinkin 8-9 does it seem like a fair price(on my end obviously)? am i stupid for hesitating? i dont wanna get into an endless pit of money but just somthing to drive around, and who knows this way once i finish the mazda i might mess with it, but dunno

the MR2 is dustins old one that a friend of mine has. its kinda ragged out but as far as i know it ran well until the dizzy or MAF died. either of those are relatively cheap at a junkyard. i'll check with him see whats up with it.
