  1. mileage is about right

    easy to fix everything. If your are a do it yourself person (depending on were the brake/fuel leaks are)

    -fuel leak

    -brake line leak

    -needs wheel bearing

    -needs exhaust


  2. it'll break down on you and it'll suck.  it'll cost way too much to fix all of that stuff, thousands of dollars....

    i wouldn't do it unless you are a mechanic

  3. The question is, do you want to put the time in to a car that needs that much work? I bet theirs more than that needing fixed.

  4. $150 is a good deal for any car. You could probably sell it as parts for at least $500.

    If you are looking to fix it up the fuel leak would be easier to tell you about if I knew where it was. I'm hoping it's just a cracked fuel hose which is an easy fix.

    You can get a full set of aftermarket stainless steel brake lines for $100 for just about any car, I can imagine factory replacement for a single one would be under $20 and probably much less but I've never honestly had any problems with mine.

    Wheel bearing probably wouldn't be that hard though again never had to replace mine.

    Exhaust is again not a big deal depending on what section you need to replace. You can easily get a muffler for $50, piping isn't too bad either, Catalytic Converters cost a pretty penny since they have platinum and all sorts of fancy metals in them but I think they still sell under $100.

  5. DUH!

  6. any car is worth $150

    you could probably sell it to the junk yard for more than that

  7. Get the problems replaced you stupid w***e

  8. no! buying a really piece of c**p car will drain you of money and possibly kill you with both a fuel leak and brake line leak  

  9. yea bro it is id take it but make sure its legal and legit i mean its a great deal

  10. Yep sounds good.

  11. par

  12. Absolutely positively in no way should you buy this car. It's not a fixer upper. it a stay away fromer. It will be broken down all the time, and you will be sinking your time and money into it non stop. Not to mention, that list is probably not half of what the car really needs. They'll be cooling problems, compressions problems, cam chains to change, water pump failure, transmission failure and on and on. There's nothing wrong with a high mileage Toyota, but if it has all of thoe problems, it has not been well maintained.

  13. good price if you can do the work.  will get expensive quick if someone else has to do it for you.

  14. cant beat 150 bucks even though it is foreign

    if ya got the money buy it
