Vehicle Detail

2013 Fiat 500 Hatchback/Coupe Lounge Trim - Automatic - Red with Black Interior If you are looking for a car that looks good, is in good shape and mechanical condition, is economical, and will get lots of looks in traffic, then this car fits the bill. If what you care about most is a car that is roomy, quiet, and comfy, then...not so much. Selling points:The interior is in excellent condition: Leather and upholstery is immaculately clean; no tears, rips, stains or smells. Plastic has no aging/wear. Not grimy or gross.All mechanical and electrical systems work properly: Engine and transmission have no issues; AC blows cold; stereo and speakers fully function and sound GREAT; battery is less than 1 year old; power windows and moonroof function; brake, signal and headlights all good. Brand NEW Tires The glass in all windows and moonroof is clear with no cracks.This is the Lounge model- features include automatic climate control, heated leather seats, alloy wheels, power sunroof, leather, and upgraded stereo system with Beats audio (Bluetooth, Sirius/XM, AUX and USB inputs, and CD/MP3 player). Hands free Voice Command with Bluetooth. Steering-wheel mounted audio controls. Front floor mats. 50/50 folding rear seat.Rear park assist/backup sensors. Compact spare.Original owners manual and recent service record history. Known issues:Rebuilt "branded" title. This shows on the vehicle history report but in NO WAY affects how you buy and register the vehicle. It is registered in TN and can be titled and registered in any US state. I have the title in hand ready to transfer to new owner.Rebuilt titled vehicles are different than Salvage titled vehicles. You can save LOTS on a rebuilt vehicle and NO ONE will know that you saved tons of money vs. a clear-titled used vehicle.This link provides good info on why you should consider a rebuilt vehicle: https://www.motor1.com/features/76222/understanding-a-rebuilt-title-and-how-its-a-good-thing/ and this one: https://www.autotrader.com/car-shopping/buying-used-car-whats-rebuilt-title-236599Vehicle had previous damage to the front right wheel (see pics). I have had it completely rebuilt and is mechanically safe to drive. However, there is still a slight vibration during acceleration only (not when cruising, coasting, or braking). I have replaced the front axle, lower control arm, tie rods, and had an alignment done. After each service, the problem has improved, so I think it is close to being fully resolved. I just do not have the time to continue working on it. Lots of other DIY projects on my list and another "toy" car to tinker with.There are a few exterior dings, scratches, and scuffs, mainly around the rear bumper and the right rear quarter panel (see pics). However, there are no significant dents. There are some minor scratches on the wheels/rims.The windshield washer fluid does not spray. It was working before the axle and control arm were replaced, and since the fluid housing is located in that same area, I believe the mechanic just forgot to connect everything, and I didn't notice it for months. The windshield wipers work, and new wiper blades were installed. There is one tiny gravel pockmark on the passenger side of the windshield, but it has been there without spawning a crack, and I only noticed it when I was replacing the wiper blades b/c it is that tiny!Why am I selling?I bought this for my 16-year-old daughter last summer so she could learn to drive and keep it after she got her license. She JUST got her learner's permit over Spring Break a few months ago, and has shown ZERO interest in learning to drive. So why am I paying to insure a car that isn't driven and takes up valuable space in my garage?!I'm selling my daily driver also (2016 Ford Escape Titanium, also listed on eBay) with hopes/plans of getting an older used car so that when my daughter finally cares about learning to drive, I can give to her at that point. And not pay for 2 vehicles until then!This was a good project for me. I learned about the money you can save buying a salvage vehicle and the process to have it rebuilt. Including having the car shipped from out of state and all of the repairs, I can guarantee I am losing money on this deal. The last time I totaled everything up, I had about $5500 invested, and I've had work done since then. But I learned a lot about the rebuilding process with this vehicle.... and learned that Fiats are easy to work on for DIYers.Conditions of Sale:If you do not have the funds available for purchase and will need to secure a loan, contact your lender BEFORE you bid to confirm that you can obtain a loan to cover the purchase.
