I've never bought modified, mostly because I don't trust most people that modify cars. Custom sourced modification has zero standard, and without any standard you have no idea what you are getting your self into.

If you know the person and/or have a good understanding of the car prior then that is a different story.

That being said if you or somebody you know has intimate understanding of the 86 platform, it's simply a matter of determining whether the car is put together correctly or not via a inspection. Assuming it has been, and the car is modified how you intended to modify it, to me that it a no brainer. Financially you are coming out ahead.

Those who prefer the satisfaction of DIY accept that they won't get those thousands of dollars back during modification. All things to consider.
