You are bidding on an IMMACULATE 2001 Chevy Malibu with approximately 73,700 miles. This vehicle has had the engine rebuilt due to an oil leak. See below under 'What's been done' for all the details. This car is in excellent condition and has been a one owner vehicle of an older couple. The rebuilt motor has been test driven for over 200 miles to ensure no leaks or other problems on the rebuild. There are no lights and no codes. No leaks. No smoke. No noise. This car has also had several recent maintenance repairs including: new tires, new brakes, new rotors, new front wheel bearings, and a new key switch (Receipts for work come with the car). This car is nice inside and out - the video does not do it justice. It is SUPER clean and drives as nice as it looks. It has been a non-smoker's vehicle and it shows - carpets, dash and headliner are in great shape, as is the cargo area. Front carpets do have some minor staining. AC blows COLD. Exterior paint is nice and shiny with some minor nicks & scratches, but these are barely noticeable as you can see in the pics and video. The only real blemishes present are two rust spots - one 6 inch long surface rust spot on the bottom of the driver's door, and a little bit of surface rust starting to pop-through around the gas tank fill door. These can be fixed easily and reasonably by any reputable body shop. Underbody has been checked and is good and clean - some minor surface rust as would be expected but no metal damage. All rubber molding around doors/windows is in excellent condition. Giant trunk with original unused spare. See the You Tube videos below to hear it run and to see all around views. This car has been fully inspected and any problems found have been addressed. All known defects or issues are listed below and are shown in pictures and video.

Thanks for looking and good luck with the auction. A WORD ON NEGATIVE FEEDBACK: We do not make money selling cars that are garbage or by deceiving buyers with misleading information. We could easily set up another ebay account to sell under if that were the case. We are honest business people and we do not shrink from the negative aspects of doing business. We only buy good vehicles that should have several years of life left with some reconditioning. We provide that reconditioning and then we disclose in our listings what has been done as well as anything we find mechanical or otherwise that is wrong. We also treat every customer the way we ourselves like to be treated when we are customers. We have good feedback as well as a few bad. We will be happy to discuss any feedback we have received - just ask us. Again, we do not sell junk. However, mechanical issues can arise at any time even in new vehicles. We disclose everything we have inspected, everything we have fixed, and any issues unaddressed that we are aware of with every vehicle we list. However, we do not provide a warranty and all vehicles are sold 'AS IS', 'WHERE IS'. For this reason we encourage you to either inspect the vehicle yourself or to have it inspected before you buy.
