Yes, so enjoy your youth while you have it -- you can't get it back once it's gone.

I want $2000 (the thing cost me $2500)

but to someone who I know will take good care of her (maybe give her a new interior?) I'll let it go for a bit cheaper. It has a small oil and PS leak, but the motor is strong at 137k miles. Comes with shifter bushings (it rolls back if you park on a hill..) and rear subframe bushings. Little rust, some dents; completely new read brakes (rotors, pads, lines) and new pads in the front.

PM me if your interested.

I am pretty sure I am buying it, if not then I will post the info on its whereabouts. I will have to flatbed it home, thats the one downside....I suppose I could fix the brakes onsite (front brakes have unknown problem, no fluid in resevoir), but it'd be freeeezing, I'd rather do it in my heated garage than in the mud out in the open.
