2002 Chevy Impala - 3.4 V6 - 91,266 CarFax documented miles - no accidents or negative history This vehicle is going to the highest bidder! No Reserve! No Buy It Now! Please Don't Ask! Tires and brakes are excellent. In fact, it passes NY State safety inspection. Fuel pump is new and the gas gauge is accurate. For some reason the "security light" flashes on and off along with the "low coolant" light. We drove the car over 180 miles and have not added any coolant or other fluids to the vehicle. This is definitely NOT a flood car - guaranteed! I have been parking it in the same space for a couple of weeks and notice some spots of oil - very minor. There is no dripping or pooling of any fluids.The left front tire (although it passes inspection) is weak and will soon need replacing.When driving the car and making a VERY hard stop, you find a minor clunk - the lower control arm bushing has a little play in it. Strong motor and tranny. The heater works nicely! Drives real nice! Bid with confidence and drive it home! The car has a small dent on the passenger side front fender and a scuff mark on the rear bumper. Slight dimples on the roof and driver door area. No big deal. Since this car has a new oxygen sensor, the monitors were cleared. In order to pass NY State inspection, the monitors have to reset. In order to reset the computer monitor the car has to be driven. I drove it over 180 miles and put about $100.00 worth of gas in it. These '02 Impalas, along with most other GM cars '02 - '03 are notorious for how long the computes take to reset - sometimes hundreds of miles. I refuse to drive this car another mile. Even though the car runs out 100% and there are no "check Engine" lights on, the monitors have not reset. New York residents are unable to bid or buy unless they are a registered car dealer, registering/re-titling the vehicle out of state or are using it for “Parts Only”. When a car is sold as “Parts Only’ or “Salvage” it must pass a NY State “Salvage Inspection”. This is done to keep rebuilt wrecks that are unsafe off the road – especially vehicles with frame damage or airbag deployment. My cars are rarely rebuildable wrecks and therefore will pass this strict inspection process when the problem that is advertised is corrected. There are about 10 to 15 NY State salvage inspection sites in NY State – 2 or 3 are on Long Island and there are a couple in NY City. Call me for further clarification. As a registered NY State dealer I am unable to sell a car that won’t pass inspection to a NY State resident. Anyone else can bid and buy. Sorry, I don’t make the rules but as a used car dealer I must abide by them. Any questions call 516-228-1016 and leave a message if I’m not in. Please don’t wait until the last day or last few hours to contact me. Please speak clearly. I will pick you up at the train or bus station. Winning bidder please leave a $300.00 deposit (of which $50.00 is non-refundable) in PayPal within 48 hours of the auction close. If I don't receive the deposit within the 48 hours I will relist the car. Please plan on picking this vehicle up within 15 days of the auction close unless you have made prior arrangements with me before bidding. If the vehicle is left after 15 days your entire deposit becomes non-refundable and I will relist the vehicle. All vehicles that run and drive are driven at least 10 to 20 miles and usually 30 to 40 miles. I try to describe these vehicles to the best of my 35 years of experience. Our familiarity with these autos is limited to the miles we drive them. Please be aware of this when bidding. As always, if the winning bidder is not happy after road test and examination, I will cancel the sale and refund $250.00 of your deposit. Attention “Phantom/No-Show” bidders – I do not entertain any second place bids and always relist the vehicle. Final sale price is what you pay! (New York residents must pay sales tax and inspection fee when applicable.) There are no extra hidden fees!!! Good luck and thanks for looking!
