Festiva?

Anyone here have one? Theres a 93 for sale down the street. Guy first said $600 but then $500. I dont think I would give him more than $400, and I would start at $300. Its got 167,000 miles, and no rust, but some dents. I dont really care about the looks though. It started up really really easy and ran really smooth. A little noisy under the hood but nothings noisier than a a chrysler 2.5. The lil 1.3 was quiet compared to those.

What kinda mpg could I expect? It is a 5 speed. Very basic car. No power steering. 12 inch dubs.

Of course, I could always drop a 1.6 turbo mazda in it, I saw a festiva running 13's in the 1/4 with one of those. Sweet.

Or make my own SHOgun. no.
