Found a nice manual Mayan Bronze with Umber FS
Not sure is I'm allowed to post links to cars for sale, but seeing how a few members are looking for these unicorns and this color combo is on the rarer side to begin with. Plus it being a manual, someone might be interested. I have no affiliation with the seller or this car.

That front bumper is haggard and it looks like they shined the engine bay covers with WD-40. Lol.

Something about that dealer to me screams shady used car dealer. And that was before I read these.

When checking out car dealers I think Yelp is a pretty accurate indicator. I know first hand ( a good friend of mine works in social media) it is VERY hard to get bad reviews removed from there. Dealer Rater and google reviews I think tend to be littered with people who are associated with the dealership.

Ok, here are the first things I would look for....
1. Run a car fax
2. Take it to a body shop and verify the frame and that it hasn't been in an accident.
3. Verify that all body panels have the same VIN number
4. Drive it and listen. The engine should sound clean and smooth throughout the RPM range
5. Ask what service was done since they have had it.
6. Make sure there isn't any issues with the normal prop shaft wine, shifting into 2nd and 3rd.
7. Make sure the speakers arn't blown
8. Keep in mind there is no warranty
Now, when you buy the car (this is what my uptight ass did)
1. Change the oil
2. Change the air filter
3. Drain and fill the following
* MT fluid
* Transfer Case
* Rear differential
4. Have the brake fluid and power steering fluid changed
5. Change the spark plugs
Have fun
BTW, I bought mine used and this is what I have done so far.
It's a lot cheaper when you do the work yourself
