First, a mandatory picture of the car for those interested.

Background:

I am the second owner of this car. The original owner just turned 81 this year and he owned the car for 18 years. This car was kept in a heated, carpeted garage for those 18 years of winters as the original owner was a snowbird who flew to Arizona every winter. The car is very clean and I take pride in keeping it in tip top shape. I have all the maintenance receipts from the original owner. I am only selling because I want a manual car. Willing to take trades plus cash.

Specs:

4.0 V8 - 250hp engine. Engine is extremely smooth with a rock solid idle. It is one of the most reliable engines ever made from my research. Starts up right away with a new battery which was just replaced last year. Within the last 3k miles, I have done some maintenance on the car including new spark plugs, wires, distributor cap, oxygen sensors, and oil change.

Leather, 6 disc CD changer, power seats(with memory), mirrors, power headrests, power seatbelt height, power telescopic and tilting steering wheel, keyless entry and many more.

98K miles. It is currently my daily drive so the milage will vary. This is a turn key car, with no major issues to speak of. I would not hesitate to take this car cross country. There are a few dings here and there but absolutely no rust on the undercarriage.

Ac is ice cold, it’s automatic climate controlled. You can’t hear the v8 due to the crazy noise suppression and eriely smooth engine. But you can gut the cat, put a straight through exhaust and make 15-20hp and go VIP stylez

Gorgeous car, Long. I would love to drive one of these, but my '01 Accord is treating me just fine…

Good luck, someone will be getting a really nice car here…

Just received the itinerary for a flight in from an out of state buyer for this car. Consider it sold.
