theres a 97 eclipse GST convertible in a dealer for $8,995 w/ 90,000 miles, manual transmission on it. theres a 1 failed emission inspection on the carfax report. what do you guys think? should i get it or not? should i get a convertible or not?

I dont know how to drive a manual yet but im looking forward learning it. I just know how to drive a motorcycle w/ manual transmission. they said its the same. any tips for me?

Thanks!!!

 

It pretty much the same to drive a car , same idea anyway. as far as a converible I have owned a 2002 spyder and I dont think I will ever buy a converible car that I intend to mod. They weight ALOT my eclipse weighed 4100lbs. and if your gonna spend that much money I say find a GSX with a few less miles on it and throw down a bit more money. The AWD is well worth it.

The car most likely failed for soething stupid like a bad o2 sesonr or something like that prolly not a big deal. unless its blowing smoke at all
