Nothing as far as I know, I'm picking it up from my neighbor this weekend so i'm gonna check it out in more detail then. I had planned to use this as my winter car last year but I drove my camaro instead and managed fine, so I never picked up the car, now he needs it out of his driveway, lol.

Also has an aftermarket Kenwood CD radio with aux-in and remote.
I also polished the drivers headlight quickly so its not as cloudy.
Appears the hood, obviously, and the passenger headlight had been replaced at some time.
Rust on bottom of pass fender, and driver rear wheelwell. (Pics included below)

Car has sat for almost a year, has not been washed in that time either.
I'll take additional pics after I have time to wash/wax it.
EDIT: additional pics at the bottom of this post from after I washed it.

KBB says in good condition, its worth $1,435. And that condition definition matches what this car is.
($1,035 in fair)

It also has a current inspection good until May 2015, and YES, it NJ inspection passed all on its own!

More pics...

bump.
tell your friends,
tell your family.

Car had been listed on craigslist too.
I would put it on ebay but for the selling price, its just not worth the fees.

Any chance for actual MPG to be found or is it without insurance/registration at the moment?

Yea, google says my truck does 15/17, but in reality its 19/22, hence the "actual" part :wink:

He hasn't gotten back to me yet about actual mpg info.

It's not currently registered/insured under my name at least. I don't think his old plates are still good.

It's hard to justify paying registration fees($46.50), taxes($49), title fee($60), and insurance(~$50month) on a car I'm selling for 900.
Otherwise price would have to go up to $1,100.
