Relisted Note: This will be the second and last time I list the vehicle. High bid on first auction was $1500 which just tells me I will do better just having an exgtra vehicle in the family for one of the other 5 needs to be replaced. I will give this one more try and am happy to work with whomever wants this excellent running luxury vehicle with a ton of repairs already performed. I have owned this vehicle since November 2008 when I purchased it for my 17 year old son. The car had 132,000 miles on it at that point. I have put $10,600 into the car making sure it was very safe for my son. I have virtually all of the receipts and have listed the major things done to the vehicle below. My son now 20 has another vehicle so I thought I would sell this one if I can get a decent offer. The car was a daily driver for him up until a month ago and I now take it out every other day just to keep it running so the miles may be a bit more once you get it. It drives extremely well getting 17MPG in the city and 24MPG on the highway. I take it up to my cottage in northern michigan for a round trip of 600 miles with no worries. It drives very smooth, very tight and very straight on the highway...very comfortable cruising vehicle. The following are the major things done to the vehicle since November 2008: 1. All new suspension parts including upper/lower ball joints, rods, struts and bushings Very tight suspension now ($2000) 2. Four New Rotors/ceramic brakes and it stops extremely well with virtually no pulsation. 3. Two tires are brand new (less than 2000 miles) and the others are 60,000 mile tires with about 25,000 on them but they are very full of tread still. The tires are balanced. The car has been aligned recently and it drives with no vibration, or crooked steering at 80 MPH. Very smooth. 4. Have never done anything to trans except changed fluid and new filter. Gears are very smooth through all of them. 5. Two wheel cylinder bearings 6. Altenator 7. A/C compressor 8. Water Pump 9. Fuel filter, injection service in the last 5000 miles (done twice since I owned it) 10. All fluids replaced to include radiator flush, power steering flush, trans, oil 11. Serpentine belt replaced along with pully tensioner 12. Cabin and air filters replaced non smoking and the recent detail made it smell even nicer. 13. Just had it detailed at high end place for $350 to include clay bar, inside,outside and engine. Smooth as can be!! Car has spare, one key fob. All power works with the window in passenger rear listed below. Things I know are issues: 1. Inside on passenger door..the cap to the seat control is missing. Seat control still works but the cap which is cosmetic is missing. 2. Rear passenger window does not work/roll down. 3. Air bag light on...never has since I owned it 4. Rust spot about 3 inches long and 1/2 inch wide on rear of fender (picture shows it) 5. Air suspension system recently went out. I took this to the dealer who described that the relay switch is bad. Compressor works but shuts off since relay switch does not work. Dealer cost to fix: $400. I also had quote for a rear spring system to be installed which a reputable place told me $520. Relisting Note: Since this is a relisted item, I took the vehicle into to get a rear suspension conversion kit for $550 which will have new springs in the back. I have adjusted the buy it now price down a bit even though I put another bit of money into it. I will just park the vehicle in my storage barns if it doesn't sell this time. Other than that, the car drives extremely well. I can think of no other issue with the vehicle. I am quite certain the buyer will be happy and these engines go at least until 250,000-300,000 miles my mechanic tells me. Very solid vehicle.
