Vehicle Detail
I'm going to be as honest as possible to disclose all of the known problems. I've owned the car since 2004 and 58,000 miles. This one runs pretty good, but the problem is that it overheats on the highway and uses a lot of coolant . My best guess is that it needs head gaskets. I've been driving on surface streets and refilling the coolant tank (with water) like this for about 6 months. Also, the front end feels worn and the suspension clunks on speed bumps and there is a oil leak. The AC does not currently work and the right rear window will not roll up/down (likes to slide down). The check engine light stays on, so you will have an issue registiering in CA, although it passed smog in Dec 2010. Tags are good until Nov 2011. Even so, it will still start right up and goes 90MPH. The car is very quiet. Threre are other annoying things like the remote key fobs quit working so the alarm goes off when you unlock and open the door if locked. There is the normal wear and tear on the paint and interior that can be expected for a car that has this many miles. There are some some major scratches (see photos) Oddly enough, the trans seems to be hanging in there and shifts OK with no noises. I've priced this car to reflect the issues I've listed. You could drive this car on surface streets indenfintly, or drive on the highway if you bring a gallon of water with you. Or you could part it out as the seats, interior and most mechanical components are still functional. It does have chrome wheels and decent Goodyear tires, is complete is the title is clear and in hand. If you have "0" or negative feedback, please contact me before bidding, otherwise I will drop your bid.
