He said its been to the track 3 or 4 times , doesnt have a cage in
it, and ran 9.5 seconds on just the motor with slicks. Ran 6.05 in
the 8th . It may be 10 years old but its practically brand new with
10 k miles.

Call it whatever you want. It is a 10 year old car that has been modded, end
of story. If you want to give him your car and 25 grand by all means do it.
The only one that has to be happy is you.

One other thing you might want think about. If you were so sure it was a
good deal, you would have already pulled the trigger. A little doubt before
the purchase usually turns into a big disappointment after the deal goes
down imo.
