To me the autos are junk. First gear is to tall and 3rd is to low. I just converted my car from auto to 5 speed and the auto was no fun. It took the joy out of owning a z. Slow and sucked a ton of gas. If you are dead set on 1600 for your motor you are loosing money. That is a 700-1000 dollar car IMO without seeing under it.(That could change everything) Its up to you. Have you ever wanted a s130 or had plans on getting one? If so this may be the deal for you. If you are just wanting to make your money back on the motor then no its not.
