I no longer want to drive a 5spd. It makes me want to race all the time. Everyone thinks my car is meant for racing, so therefor they want to race me. I am tired of getting tickets for speeding in this car too. And on top of all that...I am about to get married and settle down, because I am pregnant. I would like to put away and use the $money$ I get for the car for medical expenses later on.
I bought this car on October 1, 2004 for $2950 on the lot ($3250 with tags and registration/title) It had 99,632 miles on the motor when purchased. It needed a full clutch assembly, pulley/tensioner/bolt (bolt was completely melted), and the clear coat was coming off (due to tarp over car constantly). I fixed everything! I have put nearly $2000 dollars into this car...and that's not including the $1800 system that sits in it. ----------------------------------------------------------------------
Here's the list of SPECS & MODS:
■ 116,012 MILES ON ODOMETER/MOTOR ■ AROSPEED 2" LOWERING (yellow) SPRINGS $350 (installed) ■ AROSPEED SHORT THROW (chrome) SHIFTER $120 (installed) ■ MANUAL (5 SPEED) ■ FWD (front wheel drive) ■ BLACK EXTERIOR (minor blemishes, roofs clear coat coming off) ■ GREY CLOTH INTERIOR ■ 2 DOOR HATCHBACK ■ POWER STEERING ■ CRUISE CONTROL! ■ MANUAL DOOR LOCKS & WINDOWS ■ DUAL FRONT SIDE AIR BAGS ■ HAS SPARE TIRE AND JACK! ■ NEW CLUTCH ASSEMBLY (($660 marked down from $1100 at dealership)) (installed by mechanic!) ■ NEW PULLEY/TENSIONER/BOLT (($200 from dealership)) (installed by mechanic!) ■ JUST PUT IN NEW SPARK PLUGS & SPARK PLUG WIRES! (($37 s.plug wires and $3/each s.plug)) (installed by mechanic) ■JUST HAD AN OIL & OIL FILTER CHANGE! (done by mechanic) ■FLUIDS AND BELTS CHECKED REGULARLY! (done by mechanic & myself)
ONLY THINGS WRONG WITH CAR: 1. BLOWN HEAD GASKET (FULL KIT = $57 FROM PEP BOYS or $20 head gasket and $5/each sparkplug seal from dealership)
2. CODES P0442 AND P0455= EVAP (fuel line) SYSTEMS LEAK DETECTED and 3. CYLINDER #1 IS SLOWLY GOING BAD
---------------------------------------------------------------------- There are 3 people interested in the car right now, as is.

Unless you know its a lemon don't keep dropping the price. I think you should take the advice from chat and put it on ebay, if your nervious about doing it yourself, maybe we can work something out on my acct., and you list it through me. But you need to be straight up about everything, if there is anything and email me pics of alot more and we will go from there. Hit me up in a pm or aim (madhatters210).

How can you not trust $1900 cash? Money is money. If he sends you the money, give him the car, if not, keep it. I dont understand how you can not trust someone who is dropping 2 grand into your pocket.
Don't sell your car to 16 year olds...

You see, now you come across as shady. People who are looking to sell their cars because they don't want to drive a 5spd anymore and want to cover some expenses because they're pregnant don't just give the car away.
