I purchased this car used in 2008 from a dealer. It had ~65,000 miles at the time. I have always changed the oil in a timely fashion and kept up with routine maintenance. The timing belt was changed at 100,000 miles. The tires have about 15,000 miles on them as well as the brakes. This is an awesome car and I am really surprised that it has had a serious mechanical failure : (I am not in a position to fix it. ON THURSDAY AUGUST 21ST THE TURBO CHARGER BLEW AND THE CAR WAS TOWED TO A DEALER. IT HAS NOT BEEN DRIVEN SINCE. It will start and idle. It blows a lot of white smoke and it uses oil. That is, you can see oil coming from the exhaust pipes. Car is being sold with no warranty whatsoever. Strictly as is. A great buy for someone with a totaled car of the same type with a good engine or a mechanic with the ability to repair it. NOTE: the small dents on the driver door and the drivers side rear door look more prominent in person than the picture shows. I couldn't get a good picture that shows the drivers side of the car. THIS CAR MUST BE TOWED OR SHIPPED AFTER PURCHASE! IT WILL BE DAMAGED FURTHER IF DRIVEN.
