Anyone considering this should plan on a head gasket replacement. Also, the transmission shifts well but takes several seconds to engage in reverse when cold. I know its been said that such delay is a sign of a dying transmission, but its been doing that for at least 6 years now and its still going.


I honestly can't imagine anyone wanting the car (the question mark after the price should be interpreted as OBO), but it also seems like a shame to just put it on blocks. I guess that is why we keep driving it.
