I have originally bought this car for my wife to go to school back in December 2006 used. We always treat it like our family member. However, my wife has decided for a replacement. If you are an auto mechanic or know someone who is with a lot of time, this should be a good easy fixer. The engine was rebuild about couple years ago with around 20000 miles. Here are the goods:Already spent a fortune on engine rebuilt (over $2000)Already spent a fortune to replace the necessary exhaust related component for the last Smog Check to past (near $1000)About 4000 miles on front miles with 90% threadsAbout 500 miles on the rear miles with 95% threadsCome with CD changer1 remote control with new battery and key1 key Here are the bad:Heater core is leaking coolant, needs repair before it can drive awayAutomatic transmission needs adjustment because the torque converter is probably not re-installed probably by the mechanic who worked on the engine rebuild. It is drive-able prior the heater core mentioned above happenedThere is a minor crack on the lower corner of the windshield on the passenger sideThe motor assembly stopped working last week, so I had to remove the door panel and pushed the window glass to the close positionThe is minor scratches here and there on the front & rear bumpersThe front grill is removed but I still have it I will include the already removed right side door panel and the front grill with the purchase. The car is sold AS-IS as a non-operational (although it is drive-able at short distance while the heater core leaks). Therefore, I will not offer to do the Smog Check (although it should pass since I have already fixed it). The car is for local pick up only. You are responsible to get it tow or bypass the heater core on the spot if you can. Please email me with any questions. The title on the car is under my name. I hate to let it go since I have forked so much money on the repair. My lost is your gain. No Reserve! Happy bidding! :) On Apr-13-12 at 22:15:54 PDT, seller added the following information: I have originally bought this car for my wife to go to school back in December 2006 used.
