Vehicle Detail

Normal 0 false false false MicrosoftInternetExplorer4 Just had the timing belt replaced, and tires have less than 500 miles on them. This car is in fantastic mechanical condition, I used it to commute to work everyday and got over 40MPG on it!!!! My personal best is an average of 42.3 MPG for an entire tank of gas, but maybe you can do better! This car is incredibly easy and CHEAP to maintain since it uses many parts from the honda civic series of cars, whose parts are available EVERYWHERE. I saved so much money owning this car that I just bought a 2011 Chevy Camaro for cash! I hate to get rid of my trusty del Sol, it has served me well over the years, but I have no place to park it in my condo complex. The A/C blows nice and cool, and the heat gets hot in a hurry. 5Spd Manual Transmission is slick and smooth with great clutch feel. The car only weighs 2300 pounds, and so moving around in the snow is rarely a problem. I have never gotten stuck in the snow or mud because the car is so light I can push it out of any difficult spots. The very best part about this car? T-Top! The roof has two secure latches that can be un-engaged with a flick of the wrist and the whole roof portion comes right off. There is a dock to store the roof in the trunk, stowed away it only takes up 10% of the trunk space and leaves the trunk fully accessible! Driving around with the top down in the summer time is an incredible experience, especially considering you're doing it in a 40MPG econo car! There is a dent in the front right fender, and my mechanic told me that the brakes will have to be replaced in a few hundred miles. Besides that this car is in GREAT shape! Also I'd like to mention that the car it COMPLETELY STOCK!!! NO CUSTOMIZATIONS!!! And I am totally anal about car maintenance, replacing the oil every 3000 miles on the dot. If you're into aftermarket customizations, this is the perfect blank canvas to build a monster racer out of! ****UPDATED**** Last week a branch broke from the tree under which I park every day. This caused the windshield to shatter and must be replaced. I have not taken it to a mechanic but it will probably cost at least $500 to replace the windshield. I have updated the photos to show the damage done to the car and reduced my asking price from $4000 to $2000 (or best offer). ****UPDATED**** I have a lot more photos, please email me and I will send them to you.
