96 saturn SL2 for sale.

Weight: At a scrap yard the car weighed in at 2300lbs so it is pretty light.

Transmission: automatic: condition 100%  
comments: shifts are fast and crisp. fluid & filter changed every 15K since 47K miles

Engine: 1.9L DOHC: condition 90%  
comments: Burns 1 qt every 2500 miles. engine is from a 2001 SL2 with 67K sounds really powerful! with summer tires driving the car had I would get 28-30mpg city/highway 25mpg highway @85

Brakes: front disk 60-70%, rear drum 80%=  
comments: front pads are ceramic and didn’t fade at nyspeed trackday #3

Tires: perelli winter carving snowtires 90% front 70% rear. If you manage to get stuck with these you should probably go kill yourself.

Suspension: front worn but useable, rear strut mounts were repaired recently LR strut replaced within 5K RR strut worn. Rear sway bar added  
comments: Its a saturn it is not a handling machine but it is a blast on the track and on the street.

Exhaust: Exhaust was modified to fit the 2001 exhaust manifold which has a built in cat (the 1996 manifold did not). exhaust pipes are pretty rusty and will have to be replaced eventually.  
comments: The muffler fell off last winter but the car is not that loud so i never bothered to fix it.

Interior: front seats are not bad but the back seat is pretty beat up from me transporting parts in it. If required I will replace it for sale. FOLD FLAT REAR SEATS!!!  
comments: The head unit is aftermarket as are the speakers. the audio is pretty good and a pleasure to listed to. Easily drown out missing muffler. Equiped with power sunroof, power steering and KICK ASS A/C (that means it works) there is a 450watt powerinverter hardwired in to the car. there is 1 110 outlet at the rear of the center console and a switch to activate it under the heater controls. there is a amp out volume control next to that switch with RCA’s already run to the trunk.

Exterior: NO RUST, glittering silver  
comments: hood slightly crumpled from accdent many years ago, LF fender cracked. paint is ok. This car is also equiped with a rear spoiler and a sport badge on the LF fender.

Funfactor: This car is no rocket (will add rocketship windshield banner if it will make the sale) but it does handle good with a very balanced feal (oversteer with brakes, neutral feal off power and understeer on power) combined with powerful brakes and sporty styling you may ask yourself “Why didn’t i buy this sooner?”

asking $1100 OBO

last time i sucessfully ran codes it was for a EGR pintle valve stuck. I installed a EGR from a junkyard that I cleaned up really good but the light is still on. the coolant light is on because it is a bit low. It isn’t low when the car is up to temp. I never bothered to fill it since I replaced the flex plate in the summer.

I can assure you that the muffler did fall off. as proof you can come and look at the rubber hanger. It still has part of the muffler in it, at least I don’t think I ever took it out.
