                You'll enjoy the car. I've got a 1993 1.6 manual with 75k that I've had since 2001. It's sitting in winter storage and I've been planning on selling but haven't had time to get to it.

                  Ok I legitly own it... And I love driving it and I'll love driving it more once I fix the previous owners hella broke lowering job. Which it looks like they used bicycle springs to lower it which blew the factory struts to hell! So it's hilariously bouncy now lol

                        Sorta buying a car is like sorta being pregnant. 

                        Looks like a decent car from the blurry pic. Or was the car still bouncing from the weird suspension job when you snapped the picture?

                            It was still bouncing for sure.  17 minutes until it is completely at rest.
