Car is in good running and driving condition; can drive anywhere. I still use it every day so mileage might be a little different upon sale of vehicle.

Has new parts including brand new alternator, spark plugs, wires, new distributor and new fuel filter. Battery is still good no problems. All lights are functional and in good working order including fog lights. Timing belt/water pump done about 30000 miles ago. Car is so quiet when it is running; there is no exhaust problems. Brakes are good for another 15000 miles. No cracks in the dash and the undercarriage is clean. Sunroof works good all power and also equipped with a luggage rack. The radio sounds great; has Bose system all speakers work good. The 4x4 works great even has locking differential. The transmission shifts as it should and leather seats have minimal wear. I just recently changed the oil and no leaks whatsoever from any of the fluids.

 

The temperature gauge just started not to work. It fluctuates a bit and does not work properly but car does not overheat at all. It is just problem with the gauge. Car squeaks a little when you first start it so it could use some new belts. The tires in the front are okay but the ones in the rear need replacing; also missing 2 center caps. The chrome on the wheels could use some restoration but there are no bends or cracks on the wheels themselves. Needs shocks all around Definately as the car shakes a little at highway speeds. The check engine light is on. I am not sure what it is. It is coming up as a P0300 which means random misfire. I have done everything to try to fx it but I give up. The car stumbles a little when cold. A/C does not work at all. I have pulled the belt off the compressor pulley because it kept getting off track. The compressor is no good. The body has various scratches and dents and the door lower trim pieces have been removed as they rusted out. There is a nickel sized dent  on passenger door and damaged paint on rear right side of bumper . The front bumper is damaged so that needs work too. Upper part of windsheild drivers side has a crack in it but it does not seem to be spreading.

 

Car comes complete with owners manual and service manual on a cd if you want to work on it yourself.

If buy it now price is met, vehicle can be shipped free of charge to anywhere within 100 miles of location(Stamford CT).

NHTSA, IIHS, and 20 automakers to make auto braking standard by 2022

Thu, Mar 17 2016

The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety and virtually every automaker in the US domestic market have announced a pact to make automatic emergency braking standard by 2022. Here's the full rundown of companies involved: BMW, Fiat Chrysler Automobiles, Ford, General Motors, Honda, Hyundai, Jaguar Land Rover, Kia, Mazda, Mercedes-Benz, Mitsubishi, Nissan, Subaru, Tesla, Toyota, Volkswagen, and Volvo (not to mention the brands that fall under each automaker's respective umbrella). Like we reported yesterday, AEB will be as ubiquitous in the future as traction and stability control are today. But the thing to note here is that this is not a governmental mandate. It's truly an agreement between automakers and the government, a fact that NHTSA claims will lead to widespread adoption three years sooner than a formal rule. That fact in itself should prevent up to 28,000 crashes and 12,000 injuries. The agreement will come into effect in two waves. For the majority of vehicles on the road – those with gross vehicle weights below 8,500 pounds – AEB will need to be standard equipment by September 1, 2022. Vehicles between 8,501 and 10,000 pounds will have an extra three years to offer AEB. "It's an exciting time for vehicle safety. By proactively making emergency braking systems standard equipment on their vehicles, these 20 automakers will help prevent thousands of crashes and save lives," said Secretary of Transportation Anthony Foxx said in an official statement. "It's a win for safety and a win for consumers." Read on for the official press release from NHTSA.

Automakers making the commitment are Audi, BMW, FCA US LLC, Ford, General Motors, Honda, Hyundai, Jaguar Land Rover, Kia, Maserati, Mazda, Mercedes-Benz, Mitsubishi Motors, Nissan, Porsche, Subaru, Tesla Motors Inc., Toyota, Volkswagen and Volvo Car USA.

800k car names trademarked globally, suddenly alphanumerics seem reasonable

Tue, 01 Oct 2013

What's in a name? This cliched phrase probably gets tossed out at every marketing meeting that happens when a new car gets its nomenclature. We know the answer, though: everything. The name of a car has all the potential to make or break it with fickle customers that are more conscious than ever about what their purchases say about them.
That's giving headaches to marketing folks across the automotive industry. "It's tough. In 1985 there were about 75,000 names trademarked in the automotive space. Today there are 800,000," Chevrolet's head of marketing, Russ Clark, told Automotive News. Infiniti's president, Johan de Nysschen, echoed Clark's sentiment, saying, "The truth of the matter is, across the world, there is hardly a name or a letter that hasn't already been claimed by one car manufacturer or another. You can go through the alphabet - A, B, C and so forth - and you will quickly see that almost all available letters are taken."
What has that left automakers to do? Get creative. In the case of Infiniti, it made the controversial move to bring all of its cars' names into a new scheme, classifying them as Q#0 for cars and QX#0 for SUVs and crossovers. So the Infiniti G, which was available as the G25 and G37, is now the Q50. The FX37 and FX50 are now the QX70.
