I was at KFC ordering some take out for me and my girl, when i met up with a friend in line. He was with another friend of his and we started talking about cars. My buddy's friend asked me if that was my celica in the parking lot and complimented me on it . He then said that he has an STI that he is trying to sell and i told him that although its a powerful car and its an AWD, i'm not too keen on the looks of it. He then asked me if i like GT4's. I restrained myself from replying to him with an old school "duh!" and i said "hell yeah!". One good thing about this country is that it allows Japanese imports and there are alot of auto dealers that sell imported Japanese cars. Although i've been to alot of the dealers, it just so turns out that one of these dealers has a 96 white GT4! The guy said that it was in good condition and that i should check it out before its gone. He vaguely remembers that it was selling for about $12K.

My question is, when i go take a look at it this week, (besides wondering if that is a good price), what do i look out for besides the usual buying-a-used-car check? Turbo? Superstrut suspension? I want to make sure that if i'm going to pay that amount, that its not going to breakdown later and cost me that much more to repair. I want to be able to keep me ST202 also. Appreciate any tips. Thanks.
