    http://www.carsoup.com/used/detail....hicleTypeID=1&UVViewID=4&Page=1&DealerGroupID= Scuba Steve and I drove all the way to Fargo today, cashiers check in hand, hoping to buy this car. I wanted it...bad. Car is in really good condition, but, the clutch is about shot! The owners had no idea and I do believe them but they mentioned some other potential buyers coming up from the twin cities, so I thought I would possibly alert someone to this and they may re think the drive if its anyone on this forum. I was unable to strike a deal with the owner today:(

    sounds like a nice buy. so u didnt buy it due to price? or because of the clutch. i know i saw a 2.5 rs coupe that was blue driving around today here in fargo for sale. a chic was driving it. it looked to be in good shape.
