Vehicle Detail
You are bidding on a very clean, well maintained, low mile Toyota Celica GT with many extras! ONLY 93,000 ORIGINAL MILES!! YOU CAN own a Toyota with less than 100k original miles for less than $6,000! DETAILS: All original paint (never painted or wrecked) , everything works- including power top and power windows, many upgrades throughout, including CD player with Touch Screen Navigation, alarm with keyless entry, MP3 input jack, USB music/ Ipod integration, auto-dimming mirror with home-link to control your garage doors (up to 3) without the need to carry your remote, and hands free Bluetooth that integrates most phones through existing speakers. Power Windows, Power Locks, Power Mirrors, and Cruise Control. A/C works great. Vehicle runs and drives great! I am the second owner. Please note, as with any other used car, there are a handful of very minor dings and dents, but overall this car is in great condition. On Mar-09-12 at 07:10:02 PST, seller added the following information: Photos and Communication I've been getting a handful of inquiries that have common themes, so I thought I'd update my listing and address them here. I've uploaded some additional photos of the engine compartment and interior photos, but if you want any specific additional photos, I will try to accommodate any reasonable requests. You can e-mail me at Keshishian@Lawyer.com and I will respond usually within the same day. I am also happy to show the car on the weekends and on some weekdays depending on my work schedule (I work in Santa Monica but live in Santa Clarita so I drive about 75 miles round trip through the valley daily). Car History I just bought a 2012 Nissan Versa (w/ an automatic transmission so my wife can also drive it) for my daily commuter and that is why I'm selling this car since I don't need four cars. There are no material problems known with this car. Everything works and it drives and looks great with really clean interior. I have all of the oil change records since I bought it in June of 2010, and some of the records from the prior owner. All of the engine belts appeared to be brand new when I got the car a year and a half ago. The top is good shape with no rips or tears, and other than some wind noise at freeway speeds (pretty common for any convertible), and some shimmying of the front brakes when decelerating from high speeds ( also very common with these Toyotas-but a cheap fix to re-surface the rotors when the next brake change is due) there are no known material issues with the vehicle. Inconsistencies in Experian Report From my perspective, it appears that there are a couple of inconsistencies relating to the Experian auto-check report. First, it appears to report that there were 2 prior owners before me. My understanding is that is an error because Experian appears to have treated the initial lease which was bought out by the original lessee as 2 different owners (I understand that the lease buyout was done by the original lessee). Next, I have a high degree of confidence that the paint on the vehicle is all original. While there are a couple minor dings and dents (as would be expected in the case of any car that is over 10 years old) the paint is shiny and there appears to be no evidence of repair or paintwork. To my way of thinking the purported collision reported in Arizona in 2001 was either (i) very minor and did not necessitate and repairs; or (ii) is not accurate and may have been pulled from traffic reports from another vehicle with a similar VIN #. The reason why I am pretty confident about this is because I paid for a Carfax back when I bought this car in 2010, and they had a Carfax guarantee that there were no prior wrecks, and again, the paint appears to be all original. Again, if you have any questions, please feel free to email me.
