He isn't in California or the PNW where you can't turn around without tripping over one. Could be a long wait for a better deal.
Oh sorry about the age, in greater detail, the previous owner wasnt much of a car guy. I would describe him best as an older gentleman who just wanted to try the car, but of course due to his age, and being inactive, there are certain things he may overlook such as taking pristine condition of the interior and exterior, rubbing the leather seat harshly when he drops himself in the seat, etc. - all of which may have contributed to a not so cosmetically perfect car, but also allowing a barely thrashed engine
