Vehicle Detail
Truly stunning black sedan offering exceptional comfort and luxury. We bought this car from a dealer in 2005. It is by far the best car we have ever owned. It has been 100% reliable as a daily commuter as well as a roadtrip car. The power, the ride, the comfort, the understated beauty inside and out, massive trunk, better-than-expected gas mileage...all will make us really miss this car. We are selling simply because it is time for a commuter car with fewer miles on it. The standard equipment and features are listed above in this ad and also appear in the scan of the original window sticker which is included with the vehicle photos. MSRP for this vehicle new in 2003 was $41,090. Current blue book average retail is around $6,000 while average trade-in value is around $4,300. The exterior is in very nice condition, no rust or dents or major paint chips/scratches. There are the typical blemishes that you find with a vehicle of this age and mileage, primarily small stone chips in the front bumper and minor surface scratches. There is a small chip/crack (less than an inch) in the windshield near the bottom of the passenger side lower corner. It has been there a long time and has not grown, and it is nowhere near the field of view. All of the instruments and electronics work as they should, although the digital display in the dash for the outside temp sometimes does not light up. The backlight for one of the steering wheel mounted controls for the stereo is out. Heat and AC are awesome. Stereo sound, tuning, operation, all about as good as you can get. The rain-sensing wipers are really nice. Heated seats for driver and front seat passenger are a very nice feature as well. The leather upholstery color is called "Shale". Rear bench seat is like new, passenger side of split front bench seat is in excellent condition, driver seat shows signs of wear but no tears and still completely comfortable. All power controls (seats, windows, locks, sunroof, mirrors) work perfectly. Carpeting is in really nice shape, carpeted floor mats in rear are like new, front ones have some minor marks/stains. Engine starts on one turn of the key, runs quiet and strong. Oil has been changed every 3,000 miles (full synthetic). Has a lifetime K & N air filter. Tires are good but might be getting close to time to replace. Brake pads new this year in front, rotors and pads in rear last year. Several months ago, noticed an occasional drip of coolant on the garage floor after the car sitting overnight. No discernable leaks in hoses or at gaskets or clamps, and we have only twice added a small amount of coolant to top off the reserve since that time. No accidents, although last year, I ran over a deer after the car in the lane next to me hit it at high speed. We have a high comprehensive deductible, so we repaired the rather minor damage (slightly bent piece that runs from the driver's side fender skirt toward the lower grill) ourselves. No visible damage. Fuel economy is rated at 18 city 28 highway, however I have gotten a solid 20-22 commuting and as much as 30+ on long trips. Mileage listed here is as of ad posting, but I am still driving it regularly, so mileage will be slightly higher at auction close/sale. Current NJ inspection sticker. We've tried to properly adjust our reserve and Buy-it-now prices based upon the the flaws itemized in this description, the mileage on the car and the vehicle's overall condition. Vehicle can be seen at my home in northwest New Jersey by appointment. Contact me via eBay to make arrangements. Feel free to ask questions, and thanks for looking.
