Having the pleasure of selling 5 in the last few years, I agree, the fuel injected cars are not worth what the seller is asking, more like $68,000-$75,000.

This particular car is not known to me, but if it is like the other two that sat after sporadic use the first year or two of ownership, as soon as the car is back on the road, every bit and piece of the rubber bushings in the suspension will start to deteriorate and will indeed need to be replaced. The good news is that all of the stock suspension parts are available over the counter at most auto parts stores. Those that are not may take a few days to a week or two to get shipped in from regional warehouses or part house suppliers.
