Won't pass smog in Nevada, has a failed code for bad IMRC stuck open.  Diagnosis from mechanic is that part is not holding vacuum and needs to be replaced.  Also the check engine light burnt out.  I took the car in for a recall to get fixed and the mechanic at the dealership wrote that he noticed leaking oil from the intake and from the oil pan.  The airbags for the air ride suspension all hold air, the ac blows cold (mostly cold).  The car doesn't have any low beam headlights wired, the previous owner cut them out.  It does not have the original HID lights.  The passenger side headlight lense is cracked.  All that being said, it's a fairly low mileage car that would be a good parts car for someone.  The wheels alone go for $1000 a set on Ebay, so buying this car gets those wheels with brand new tires and a whole car to go with it.  I just drove a 900+ mile road trip and got 22 MPG. The IMRC part on ebay sells for about $100 and the lowest quote I got from a mechanic to do the work was $500, so this should be a considered a "mechanics special". Car is for sale locally so if someone wants to buy it I will cancel the auction. No reserve on the auction, I just want to move on from this car. Yes, it has brand new 70,000 mile tires with less than 2000 miles on them.On Aug-08-15 at 12:53:07 PDT, seller added the following information: I missed a couple of the pictures when I set up the auction, I want to be clear it doesn't have a grill on the front.  That was missing when I bought it.  Also there is a dent in the passenger side body panel behind the door.  There is some bondo chipping near the trunk area and the trunk doesn't quite fit perfectly which indicates some body repair sometime in the history of the car.
