The condition of the exterior, interior and engine can vary depending on the vehicle's history. See the seller's listing for full details and description of any imperfections.Seller Notes:"Vehicle is going through full restoration, and has been approximately 90% completed. The body needs to be bolted, the exhaust needs a section repaired, lights/wiring needs to be finished, front seats need to be upholstered and the rear seats have a couple spots that need to be repaired, fuel tank needs to be installed, needs new clutch master/slave cylinder, rear door panel needed, brake calipers need to be installed, headliner needs to be installed"

  This is my personal D90 I have been restoring. It is being built from the frame up and is about 90% done. Will be a great truck for someone willing to put in that last bit of work.

Chassis:
  It has a galvanized chassis(D90 300 Tdi spec), 2" Terrafirma suspension and steering damper, 24 spline axles with disc brakes, power brakes, power steering, genuine Boost alloy wheels(5), 255/85R16E(33.3x10"10 Ply) BFG MT KM2's(5), 300 Tdi 4 cylinder direct injected inter-cooled and turbocharged diesel engine(up to 28mpg in a D90), R380 56A suffix J 5 speed manual transmission, LT230 2 speed transfer case with factory cross drilled input shaft.
Body:
  It has a D90 Station Wagon body; it's solid, only a few spots of surface corrosion noted in the pics; it has and inexpensive flat black paint job, I like it, but if you're looking for a factory paint job it will need to be painted; full frame front doors with wind up windows, push button handles, D90 door panels; full frame rear door with heated rear window, washer and wiper, spare mount, but no rear door panel; both solid and folding front windshield hinges; alloy roof and sides with lockable sliding glass windows; full LeSalle molded fiber glass headliner front and rear with section for stereo and speakers; silver grill and facia; front bucket seats; center console/cubby box/arm rest and a UK center front seat(either can be fitted); all front seats need upholstery; 4 rear jump seats; lap and shoulder belts for the front bucket seats, lap belts for all the rest; factory insulation under the hood, on the firewall, and under the transmission tunnel;
What I know is needed:
  Finish bolting the body together; finish hooking up the lights/wiring; repair section of exhaust and install it; either the clutch master or slave cylinder needs to be replaced; I was also going to replace the head gasket, manifold gasket, and timing belt just to be safe;
  I have almost 200 pictures of the full restoration process as well, so let me know if you'd like to see more, or if you'd like to come see it. It has basically everything, just "some assembly required." 
  It is sold As-Is, with no warranty. It is also listed for sale locally, so I reserve the right to end the auction early. Buyer responsible for shipping or pick up. $1,000 deposit due within 24 hours of auction end. Remainder due within 7 days. Feel free to ask any questions, or make an appointment to check it out, but please don't bid unless you are going to buy it. Thanks!

New Forza Horizon 2 pack features Chevy Monte Carlo SS, Audi RS6 Avant [w/video]

Tue, Dec 2 2014

The latest car pack for Forza Horizon 2 is hitting Xbox Live today, giving Xbox One owners a shot at six new vehicles that date back to 1970. Leading the charge in the hearts and minds of the Autoblog staff is, of course, the 1988 Chevrolet Monte Carlo SS, one of the most 80s-tastic performance coupes of its time. Chevy's 80s-era NASCAR representative is joined by another General Motors performance two-door, in the form of the 1970 Buick GSX. Complete with a 455-cubic-inch V8, the GSX could best be thought of as the grandpappy to the iconic GNX of the late 1980s. Crossing the pond, we have a trio of offerings from the United Kingdom, with the 2002 Lotus Esprit V8, the redesigned, aluminum-intensive 2014 Land Rover Range Rover Supercharged and finally, the 2015 McLaren 650S. The mid-engined offerings should be a riot on the winding roads of Forza Horizon 2's European locales, while the Range Rover should make cross-country efforts an absolute breeze. Finally, virtual wagon lovers will be able to enjoy the 2015 Audi RS6 Avant and its combination of Quattro all-wheel drive and a twin-turbocharged V8. As per usual, this latest car pack will be available to gamers for $5 while season pass owners will score the sextet of vehicles for free. Scroll down for a video of the new offerings in action, as well as the official press release from Turn 10 Studios.

We all need more wagon in our lives and the Audi RS6 is ready to run around town or serve up surprises at the track.

Lexus leads J.D. Power's Vehicle Dependability Study for 2021

Thu, Feb 18 2021

J.D. Power's latest Vehicle Dependability Study is out, and, not surprisingly, Lexus sits at the top for the ninth time in the last 10 years. Right behind Lexus is Porsche, followed by Kia, which is the highest-ranked mass-market brand in the study. Genesis, last year's top-ranked brand (in its first year included in the results), fell from first to eighth, though the G80 sedan did earn an award in its midsize luxury segment. The Porsche 911 was called out as the Most Dependable Model by J.D. Power for the second time in the last three years. The vehicles being studied are from the 2018 model year, which means owners have had three years to get to know their cars and trucks. It's notable that this year's study shows a marked improvement in overall vehicle dependability as tracked by J.D. Power. The overall level of problems, scored by the number of problems per 100 vehicles (PP100), declined by 10% compared to last year.  "The study results validate what we have known for some time," said Dave Sargent, vice president of global automotive at J.D. Power. "Automakers are making increasingly dependable vehicles — but there are still some problem areas that need to be addressed and some warning signs on the horizon." Tesla makes its inaugural appearance on the Dependability Study, though its score of 176 PP100 isn't official. Tesla is the only automaker that has chosen not to grant J.D. Power permission to survey its owners in all 50 states. As we've pointed out in the past, the Vehicle Dependability Study includes eight major vehicle categories grouped by J.D. Power as follows: audio/communication/entertainment/navigation (ACEN); engine/transmission; exterior; interior; features/controls/displays (FCD); driving experience; heating, ventilation and air conditioning; and seats. All issues reported by owners are all tracked equally, which means a problematic phone pairing procedure dings an automaker's rating the same as a blown engine or transmission. And in fact, the ACEN category has more reported problems than any other, which means the majority of problems reported don't lead to a vehicle that leaves its owner stranded.
