Trans needs replacement, has fluid but slips uncomfortably into 2nd gear, ould make anyone nervous. I've driven it that way for couple months while crossing my fingers the entire time, nd as recently asSunday Oct 25th, 015I used this car to shuttle 4 people to and from the talladega nascar race roughly 2 hours away frommy house. Front brakes and new coolant tank as recently as last week, t has been my daily driver for 5 years since I had it shipped from los angeles to birmingham. The car had a bunch of engine work including timing updates and wiring harness update a few years back, t nowneeds new owner and tlc. The entire roof and rear trunk lid are faded paint as most notable cosmetic imperfections, he worst part should be noticeable in the pics.The inside interior "wood" trim is not pretty, oth the front and rear storage spaces in between seats and theassociated trim is broken, o sliding"wood" enlosures remaining, hose materials didn't stand the test of time and my children. The unique old school car phone option is there between driver and front passenger, he phone cord wirecovering is disintegrated although the the phonewill turn on if for some reason that is of interest. The interior and trunk have seen 5 years of groceries and my kids, he expected wear and tear, ot a museum piece. Also, oor locks stopped locking with key recently, he key will easily unlock the car but won't lock it, get around that bymanually pushing down on door locks, nd theall doorsand trunk will lock at once when that is done. This car is intended for someone that can provide it with a 2nd chance, r perhaps for the enthusiast brave enoughto fab a manual 5speed into it, rbuild aracing car with 4 recaro bucket seats from it, here are lots of possibilities, his car deserves another 200K miles!
I will forever miss the driving experience I enjoyed from this car, hen you live with a 500e you realize "why" they were originally sold at $80K back in early 90's, here is a high-level of engineering, afety, nd speed.
