    Buying a 1993 3000GT VR-4

    Hello all,

    Very similar to my intro post, but I've heard of worse things I could do.

    I'm going to test drive and have a high rated mechanic shop look over the car in the title. Has 117k miles and a clean title. Interior could use some work, but nothing I'm afraid of. Main question: What should I be looking for that would have you walk away from this car?

    I very much so plan on buying this as 117k miles with a clean title should last me a good while. That being said, I'm sure a lot of maintenance and time will be required to keep her running smoothly. I have seen a few sources highly recommending a thorough checkup replacing a number of parts at ~120k (spark plugs, water pump, timing belt system, and oil pump were all highlighted), but any assistance I can get as to what I should be asking about while looking through maintenance records would be much appreciated.

    I am by no means a car guru, but if it means I can make this car last over 200k I'm willing to try and put the time/work in required. Thanks again for any help.

    Edit: Cost is 6800, betting on getting him down to at least 6k with some hemming and hawing
