Vehicle Detail

This car runs WELL and is super reliable, but the inside has plenty of wear. Has a dent on the right rear side, seats have some wear and tear, tail light has minor cracks, passenger side door only unlocks / locks from the outside, A/C needs freon, upper roof upholstery is pretty so-so, wiper blades have become a little slow, washer fluid no longer squirts out, there is wear and tear on the inside of the hatchback area, and the hatchback area carpet is just so-so. So the car definitely has some minor annoyances. Overall this car is super-solid, though, mechanically. It was my every-day driver for almost ten years, and I think it's still ready to be an every-day driver. Even with the flaws I mention, if you look at the pictures of the insides, it still looks overall decent and clean. The hood is slightly sun-scorched, but nothing terrible. Cleaned up, this car still looks sharp. As far as rust, there is only three small spots of rust along the bottom of the front windshield. I have never seen anything else. There is also a small scratch on the right side. I am the third owner. Before me, an old lady almost never drove it, then a tug boat captain bought it and continued to take great care of it. Things that are all excellent on this car: fuel injection, transmission, shocks, engine, tires, automatic windows, CD, battery, suspension, frame. Starts perfectly, and always runs great. This car is currently registered as non-operation, so it can be ticketed for driving on streets (I keep it garaged and drive it around the block every week or so). So this might be a small issue for you, as you will be responsible for getting it through smog. Obviously, it will need to be driven on streets to smog it, so be aware that it does not have a current plate sticker. I will only accept cash or postal money orders. After auction end, we can meet up in a grocery parking lot or something and I will take you for a spin, before we finalize the deal. Great car. With some love, it should still have a lot of life left in it. Good luck! Final note....the car currently needs a good washing and waxing, but since I can not do that at my apartment, I am going to have to leave that up to you. I apologize that the car is not going to look quite as good as the pictures when you first see it.
