THANKS AND HAPPY BIDDING On Jan-01-13 at 16:23:19 PST, seller added the following information: Once car is paid for you can have up to 4 weeks to come get it. but the sooner the better. Car is not being driven anymore but parked. I start it once a week and move it to another space in the driveway.On Jan-02-13 at 18:17:37 PST, seller added the following information: Just need to add something here... since the reserve has not been met, I had a question asked of me to go out and check the rocker panels under the doors for rust. I just got back in the house after going out there to check, I opened all the doors and looked and the drivers side rear passenger door does have a rust hole in the rear corner. Also the rockers have some kind of panel trim piece that goes over the rocker panels and there appears to be some rust under them...some of it is crunchy but couldnt see due to this panel in the way. From the outside of the car you cant see any rust...Also the check engine light is on as well... has been for some time now my daughter said. in fact it was on when she got it. The mechanic said it was egr valve or something.. some pollution control device. Im sorry for any negligence on my part... this is a good reason to ask questions. Since the reserve hasnt been met I guess there is no damages as nobody has won it yet. I will reduce the reserve. On Jan-06-13 at 12:13:46 PST, seller added the following information: Just want to tell all Bidders and potential bidders that I have gotten a report from a potential buyer that states this car as of October 2012 has 225,000 miles on it. that's when my daughter bought it.I have never seen the odometer lit up so I didnt know this. It is a digital type odometer so who knew? My daughter drove it back and forth to college and work and maybe put 1000 miles on it since she bought it in October of last year.The 3800 motor is a great motor and virtually one of those motors that is nearly impossible to kill. GM still puts them in cars today I beleive, not sure. Salvage yards cant sell them because they seem to last forever.Anyway in light of this information I am pulling off the reserve on this auction. It is worth way more then the reserve I had set on it. After I remove the reserve the current highest bidder is not obligated to buy the car. He is at 1050.00 The next bid after 1050.00 and the highest bid at the end of the auction will be the winner. thank you very much. Kelley blue book puts the retail value of this car at the below chartexcellent $3,640 Very Good $3,390 Good $3,290 I would rate this car between this rateFair $2,715 And this rate. But i'm just the seller not the owner. I just answered all the questions on kelley blue book to determine the actual rating for this car.. It says its in good condition but Im thinking still inbetween good and fair. Somewhere around $2965.00 On Jan-06-13 at 12:18:22 PST, seller added the following information: Sorry I messed up...The reserve price is set at 1050.00 so the next bid above 1025.00 will be at no reserve. thanks, Randy
