It also depends on the market where you buy the car. That may not be terribly far off now that I think about it. They probably got 20 for trade in. You probably paid close or slightly above market value. Don't sweat it. Make up the difference by paying lower premiums

Price is decent, but its not including the cat. Also doesn't say anything about the gaskets and nuts and bolts and there are no pictures. I usually avoid things if there are no pictures.

And personally, I don't like second hand stuff. And before someone jumps me, I'm not meaning used cars, I'm just saying second hand parts and such because you never know how they cared for it.

he might have all that stuff you mentioned.. just email and he might send a few pics.. and a cheaper price.. its always to make up your mind to get 2nd hand stuff slightly used to pay for the same thing with twice the price..IMO

Perhaps, I've just always had bad luck with getting parts and stuff second hand. But I am not in the market for them at the second. I have a 4 legged friend to purchase in 2 weeks.

Who cares about the cats and your stock exhaust gasket is almost always the best.

hey guys sorry for asking too many questions today.. but does any one know the name of that part which is painted green on the engine.? and also why are their 2 airintakes in wierd positions.. never seen that setup
and how much should i be paying some one to paint it professinally without removing it from the entire engine.. or should i just try it myself.. screwed up on the engine cover last time so im not confident..

That thinking is so wrong you cant even comprehend how wrong it is. It is never to early to start saving but it sure as hell can be to late. I was just your age last week it seems. You can get married and buy a house anytime.
