Yeah, I was amazed when I saw it and how good of shape it was in, the former owner really loved this car, but had a 3rd baby on the way so he couldn't justify nor afford keeping it. The old motor had a LOT of problems. Blown coolant seals, blown turbo, countless vac leaks and electrical gremlins, blown shocks, and the synchros for 2nd and 4th were on the way out. He was the second owner, purchased it in 1993, had mazda repaint it in 94, same color, but under warranty, and considering how much spirited driving he did, it stayed in very good shape.
