I agree with PT and others here on the cost of the car. "No major maintenance" items complete does mean that, more than likely, they'll need doing. That's not a bad thing... just something to budget for.
Personally, a car with any noticeable amount of cosmetic or structural rust would be out for me. Those items would just cost too much to address.
I must disagree with PT on the color selection. I think that Aeros especially look best in lighter colors. The Aero-only bumpers, wheel arches, and rocker panels actually get noticed on lighter cars. My favorite colors: White, Silver, LeMans Blue, Red... even the Eucalyptus Green had something going for it, although I'm not a fan of metallic green in general. The only Aero color I wouldn't consider is Scarabe... just my personal taste on that one. Midnight blue would be nice, and a clean black car is hard to beat... until it shows dust ten minutes later! ;o)
David, best of luck with the purchase, if you decide to do it.

'93 9000 Aero, 5spd, 113K miles, full maintenance record since new, second owner, great condition. I purchased it 6 years ago with 44K miles, for $7400. I've done a number of the major upkeep items myself in the past few years. I haven't regretted my purchase. It's not currently for sale, but it might become available next year... pending an international move.
