I bought this car used from a dealership in the Metro Detroit area 3 years ago where I lived. It only had around 65,000 miles on it when I bought it and I've used it as a daily commuter for that 3 year period, with several road trips, the last of which being a 40 day journey with my girlfriend (including two oil changes) across the country and our relocation to Seattle last month. This car has recently been to national parks, through the Northern winter snow, mountains, the Rockies, the Southern desert, pretty much every terrain and weather you can have and it made it through everything just fine. And it was filled to the brim as I was moving cross country. That's probably the thing that can speak best of the car. I live near the city so I walk/bus everywhere now. It has it's little nick's, scrapes, rust spots, stains, etc for being a car of it's age so I won't try to detail every one, but in general it looks good overall for the age. I drove this car a lot in the last 3 years and it has had plenty of regular maintenance. I always get my oil changes on time and usually do the recommended fluid changes when they seem reasonable. In the moment everything is sound and I just had it in the shop last week for the engine light being on and they gave it the once over. The transmission fluid was really dirty so they flushed the transmission fluid a few times last week and now everything is good. The engine light has not come back on. In the time I've had this car it's started up every time, except when I drove it back from Tennessee last summer and that was because it needed a tune up, which it got. It has always been a strong runner and unless there was a specific maintenance repair that flared up that needed attention, it doesn't have any weird quirks. I'd drive it across the country again at any time. Next oil change is due at 109,000 miles. I will say that the oil tech has said that the oil has been a quart low at the last two changes (it drove hard in a lot of mountains) and the last tech said it looked like there was some tiny oil leakage on the engine. Being honest here... Some recent work include all new tires (two before the road trip and two during the road trip to Seattle), front end work of ball joints and bearings replacements before the trip, the shop told me brakes are still at 40-50% (they feel good even in the mountains). In the moment there is nothing that would need to have any attention unless you wanted to pry into some things mentioned in the "condition description" where I listed some of the defects, but none effect drivability The radio is a Pioneer Bluetooth/usb/fm radio. I only use my iphone or fm radio so there is no cd or cassette player... I'm including everything shown in one of the trunk pictures: some straps, window clothes, portable air pump/light, funnels, wiper blades, wiper fluid, fuses, sun visor clip, ice scraper and the remote for what I think is a defunct remote starter kit that I never got around to seeing if it still worked. I also have two sets of keys and two remote lock/unlock key ring buttons. PLEASE EMAIL with any questions and I will answer all the my fullest ability asap. I sold my last car on here with good results and would love to repeat that experience. This car is registered in Michigan and I have a clean Michigan title.
