If you are looking for a reliable car for your son or daughter's college or a great commuter vehicle, look no more. We purchased this car over the summer for our son with the intention of it lasting him through college. He is now in the Air Force with a long tech school so he doesn't need a car any more. I've been driving it up don't need a third car either. The first thing you will notice about this car is how clean the car is. We live in North Texas so it has never seen a real winter. The finish is still shines up nice and the interior looks great with no tears or obvious wear. The car has been garaged most of its life and is a non smoking vehicle as well. Most people would take the car to be about four years old, which is the main reason we bought it last summer. Since we thought our son would be using it for college, we took care of everything with the intention of it lasting him at least four years, and we mean just about everything! The 2.0 liter four cylinder engine has been completely rebuilt including pistons, rings, bearings, thermostat, plugs, PCV valve, complete professional valve job, tensioner pully, main drive belt, fuel filter, timing belt, Idle Control Device, new jack, a full radiator flush with Prestone, and more. The "new" rebuilt engine has only about 4500 miles on it now and runs great. The car sailed right through the Texas State Inspection including the stringent North Texas emissions tests. We have most of the service records for this car, some back to when it was almost new. We are the third owner. No wrecks or other issues, check out the CARFAX report. COLD A/C. Heater works good along with all gadgets, e.g. radio, interior lights, power mirrors etc. It has radials all around with about 50% of the tread left on average. MAY consider a trade for a jeep or small truck of equal value. In short it's ready to go to college, commute or wherever and should provide many more years of faithful service. In summary, I try to be a straight shooter and list all the details of anything I sell, even the warts. (Check my feedback rating) There really are not any warts with this car other than very minor wear and tear. I expect if you buy this car that the next thing you will replace on it is the tires. Questions welcome, serious bidders only. Happy Bidding!
