If he's got records, sounds like a steal, even if you need to change the variocam parts immediately ($600-$1K to get it done, about $100 if you do it yourself.)
What worries me is that somebody should have already bought it long ago, even at $9900. Why is it still available at that price?
I suppose it's possible that they're just not popular in texas, if it's really in that good condition, jump on it, just make your purchase dependent on a PPI, which, in my opinion, is especially important on a car being offered at a below-market price.
Still have the mechanic pull the valve cover for the PPI, as the cam gears can sometimes wear, and require replacement of the cams, which is about $1800 in parts alone. The cam gears wear, when the chain stretches, and can't be seen without pulling the valve cover (unless the mechanic has a small-diameter borescope)
