1996 850 GTS manual loaded 87k miles; $7400. Good deal? 850 1996

I ran across this on Ebay. I won't get a chance to test drive; I will have to fly to NH and drive it home if I win. Too risky? Dealer claims that the title is clear.

I currently own a 1993 Dodge Spirit that is a money trap (anyone interested in purchasing?).

His Response:

I do not offer financing. I will hold the car for a
reasonable amount of time as long as it is paid for
within 1 week. I do not offer a warranty, however It
has been safety inspected and passes in the state of
NH with flying colors and I have driven the car
personaly for the past two weeks and it seems fine.
Ebay does give you a free powertrain warranty. As far
as the title report, I am not signed up with carfax as
most of New England does not report title defects due
to consumer protection laws but you are welcome to run
a carfax, the info you need such as the vin# are in
the listing. I hope this helps and good luck!
