...you face the same quandary if you buy a whole used car, too.
It might take you a long time to recoup $2,100 in parts from a 900s with a bad engine. You would be lucky to get $1,000 for the whole thing, based on what I've seen. Parting it out could be more trouble than it's worth.
I'd go for the rebuild, esp. if you trust your mechanic. Under my personal formula, I figure I break even spending $100 for every 1,000 miles, so 15-20,000 miles isn't a bad gamble.
