First off, be cautious dealing with CL ads, you have to know what your doing when buying used cars, or trading. People will tell you anything for a sale or trade. But if the car is legite and solid, I could see it being worthwhile. You'll be giving up better handling and brakes among alot of other little things, but a nicely modded fox can be alot of fun to own. You have to make the decision, just use common sense when looking at it.

Receipts go a long way for proving work that was done on his car, without them, be cautious. Who doesn't keep them when that kind of money is spent?
