Honestly,.. I wouldn't pay $1200 unless it was really cherry...
You can get a 95' to 04' for that, and it'll have an extra gear...
5 speed...
If it's less than 25k miles and otherwise clean,.. I'd offer $600 or $800..
Of course,... it depends on where you are, too...
Some places,... countries,.. are higher...
You can trash one of these in 12k miles,... or care for it and go past 100k... it's up to you...
I'm keeping mine... forever...
Whatever you decide,.. good luck...
