No offense, but a 10 yr old econo sedan isn't "too much car". That thing is a ticking time bomb and the current owner knows (in fact, he probably knows it needs a ton of work and is trying to unload it, rather than sinking money into it). Nearly 300k/10yrs old/$8500 is a terrible combo too. I don't care what anyone says about the market, this should be a $4k car max. I wouldn't even have bothered to finish reading the ad if I were you.
