Close but I paid less
It was pretty funny, I saw it listed for $2,200 and figured I'd low-ball the guy and see what happend (Saturn running awesomely but I wanted a wagon for more room). Show up to look at it and it's got $1,850 on the window, haggle some and I give my offer and he says "no". I say " well you have my number, call me if you change your mind". 3 days later he calls and tells me to pick it up and I see it's got $1,650 on the windshield. Guessing I was the only one interested in it lol. He had made a comment about 5spds being hard to sell in the area so maybe it was just a right place, right time situation.

Major reason why I wanted it. I was looking for a white, 1995 Saturn SW2 5spd for a long time and finally decided that I'd have to expand my search and a few weeks later, this car dropped in my lap
Even trying to drive like a "normal" person I beat the EPA rating but my commute is almost all highway it's easy to beat the combined rating. Wheels are getting plasti-dipped this weekend because I hate cleaning spokes lol.
