If it is filthy I look at like this; the dude apparently wouldn't even vacuum or keep the interior clean. I kinda doubt he kept up with oil changes and other maint.

I agree. If he is to lazy to clean the car that he is selling than he probably didn't maintain it well.

If possible. I'd try to pull the valve cover, it may have tons of sludge build up in it. I'd try to find a clean better maintained ride. That price with that mileage and in that condition isn't a steal so I'd keep looking.

That price is just fair, I got mine in IMMACULATE condition with 140k miles on it for $5500 with new shocks...so unless its in REALLY good shape, then try and get him to go down a little...
