Goods:

105K, runs like a rocket. Black on Black Just had all door dings rolled out this month (feb 04) New battery Tinted DARK all sides (except front of course) MP3 Player (cd, mp3s) Cell phone mount bar on passenger left kick (analog phone, dated) white/blue pinstripe Wife drives it like a bunny

Bads:

Every now and then, when reversing, you have to rev up some to get it going...but its' been this way for 4 or 5 years, and it has never bothered us. someone said its a torque converter, but we've never had it professionally evaulated. might just need tranny service. don't really know.

Only one key, never could get lazy dealer to order new one after multiple attempts.

AM reception bad cause rear tint must have metal in it. FM is great.

Has some minor paint chip flaking on front cause of high speed driving, but we're getting the hood and paint retouched this next month, so that won't be an issue.

Wife likes it messy on inside (minor issue)

I drive it (when she lets me), like it has rocket fuel in it. Damn car will put you in your seat.

KBB is $11,390, of course that's not going to happen. dealer will offer us a trade in of about 6 to 7K. I'm sure my wife would love 10,500 or something in that area.

see pics and no comments about the garage please.
