I had my eye on a nissan silvia in the trading post last week..., it was a Q's , had some other features, non turbo, only had done 81'000kms, and was only $4999 from a caryard. Because the car was cheap, does it neccesarily mean something is wrong with it?? The car yard would have only paid the person they got it off maybe $3500, and obviously they took that offer, something wrong with the car? I asked a few people, and they thought maybe it was thrashed or something..but i thought 81'000 km's wasnt that high, but then again i don't know jack about cars Opinions please, thanks.

yeah thats about right for a na silvia, but its cheap cuz its from a yard.. does it have the ca18de or the sr20de, cuz the ca18de's are like the lest wanted out of them all, n then if its auto ppl wont even want to look at it. but if your happy with the car ect ect, get it racv or what ever u call it ther checked n get it compression tested cusu it doesnt take long to *** an engien with no oil in it, low km's dont always mean good nick egneine, another thing it could have been in a crash and miught not dirve properly number of things racv check picks all that up.
