Drove 700mi round trip to buy $800 car

[PurdueGuy]

$800

1997 Saturn SW2

~200k on body

semi-rebuilt engine (new head, lower end inspected & in good condition)

interior needs work

body is good

some performance parts

seller included all his s-series specific parts, which somewhat fill both the wagon and the suburban (not crammed full, but all floor space is taken up), including a couple full sets of wheels and some nearly brand new studded snow tires, and a ton of other stuff.

Still deciding if I'm going to fix & flip the car, or fix it up & do up some vinyls for my business (web design, computer repair, etc).

Good luck with it. I'm not much of a Saturn fan but they do have a loyal fan base.

When I read the title of the thread I was picturing some 1980s G-body coupe.

Looks like a nice find. Always did like those little wagons.

True..I wouldn't go 2 miles for a high mileage FWD compact like that, but it takes all kinds..

So what did you end up doing with it?

[Camino LS6]

Sounds like something I would do...

Like paying $900 to have an $800 car shipped to me.
