This lovely and very reliable Japanese car has been my city errand car since I bought it from the original owner in Connecticut in 2008. I put about 50,000 well-maintained miles on her and she's served me very well, but I'm ready to move to a car-share program. This car runs absolutely flawlessly at 33MPG and gets me where I need to go every time! The 2.0l engine is very responsive, as is the 5-speed manual transmission and cruise control. The car also has front and side airbags on both sides. Kelly Blue Book value for this car is $7,163 in good condition and $6,263 in fair condition; I didn't see any listings on craigslist under $8k for a similar car. The body has normal wear for a car of its age, dings, scratches, small scuffs on the upholstery, and a minor crunch on the rear passenger fender panel from a parking mishap--these are all shown in the photos. I changed the oil regularly, and have full maintenance records from my time owning it, though there are no records from the first owner. Tires and brake pads have around 15k miles on them, there are new front struts with around 15k miles on them, new battery with around 5k miles, original clutch and timing chain. I just changed the oil. I'm happy to arrange an inspection in the Philadelphia area with prospective buyers or their mechanics. -Andrew
