This particular car is exemplary; its condition, ow miles and open checkbook maintenance make it an excellent investment. Don't spend $12,000 to $14,000 for a "good" example and then have to spend thousands for work that this car has already had completed.

The air conditioning blows ice cold and the heat functions as it should.
