1999 4runner for $7k? Please check out the link. I would remove the ugly tail ligts put fender flares and lift it. I dont know if i like the red.

PS: can anyone run a vin check on it?

I looked it up on kbb.com, and good condition private party says $8950. I would say it is a good deal, but the fact that it has alteza taillights means that a kid probably owned it. I am not pointing the finger b/c I had altezas on my miata, but I raped that miata and would never want to buy it (as younger folks do). Just check into the mechanical condition. it looks clean, but wish to see more before passing judgment.

Based on the year, mileage, & options...it's a very good deal. If the physical condition and history checks-out okay then buy it.
Theres just as many older adults that think those tail lights are cool as there are teens...

It looks like the left rear quarter panel has a big dent in it. I don't think its just the light. I looked at a lot of 4runners before I bought mine. Usually the cheap ones had problems like trashed interiors or bad smells. One I looked at reeked of baby powder.

No roof rack or running boards and its red. The red ones are harder to sell.
