PLEASE READ ALL OF THE BELOW = It will probably save us both some time.

If for some reason I've missed something that you have a question to, I would be glad to answer it.

A few months after buying this car from a friend, my brother in law joined the Navy and needed someone to take care of his SUV for the next 6 years.  I don't need to sell this car, but I also don't need it sitting around on storage insurance.  The previous owner moved to New Orleans and needed the money, otherwise he loved the car and would've kept it.  For the few months I've driven it, I've had no problems.  I've gone to Vancouver, WA from Renton a few times, and then once a week local driving, or to Seattle (I work from home).  It gets good gas mileage although I don't recall what it is.

The only things I've done since buying it was have a new windshield installed for $300, a full interior clean/steam/shampoo for $150, alignment tuned, a new cabin filter and two synthetic oil changes.

I bought the car knowing the following from the previous owner...

-he hit a guardrail which damaged the front hood as seen in the second picture.  The radiator was replaced but the cosmetic damage was left.  Sometime after this repair, the check engine light came on and now stays on.  He paid for a diagnostic report to be run, which confirms it's OBD-II code P0128, which I can show you.  There are five possible causes for this code, which you can find by searching google for "OBD-II code P0128".  ebay won't let me include a link, so when you get the list of results from google, chose the link that has "obd code p0128" in the actual link.  Of the five possible causes listed, it is not low engine coolant and not likely a faulty cooling fan, as it turns on and off as expected.  Therefore the cause must be one of the remaining three listed.  I haven't had it looked at because the car runs fine and now after getting the brother in laws SUV, it doesn't make sense for me to spend the money on it.

-he backed into something, which caused the damage seen in the third picture.  Again this is cosmetic and doesn't make sense to spend money on.

-had a CD/stereo professionally installed with a sub and amplifier in the trunk, but there's still plenty of trunk space.

-spent a little over $1K for new 16" rims and tires.  There is also a set of snow chains.  However, the TPMS sensors didn't get put back on.  Therefore, the indicator light that tells you when your tires need to be inflated stays on.  The estimate from Firestone Complete Auto Care to have new sensors installed is $440 for labor, parts and tax.  I didn't have this done because I don't need my car to remind me of the obvious--check your tires every once in awhile.  :)

-he had tint installed in Texas.  It was done well.  The back window is darker than the side windows.

-there is 1 small cigarette burn in the passenger seat and 1 small burn in the drivers seat from the previous owner.

I would like to get $3,500, which is what I paid for it.  If I can't sell it for this then I'll continue to pay storage insurance for six years because eventually I'll need a car again.  I also have a car fax report, but it says the same thing as the above report that ebay is providing as part of this listing (click the "Vehicle History Report" tab).

If after reading the above, you would like to see the car or take a test drive with me, please send a message on here with your number.  Let me know if I can text, or if I should call.  Since I'm only paying storage insurance you will need to come to Renton and will only be able to drive it around the neighborhood.

Chevy shows much-improved 2014 Corvette interior in new video

Mon, 11 Feb 2013

If you want a closer look at what went into designing and building the interior for the 2014 Chevrolet Corvette, we've got just the thing. General Motors has released a new video detailing the cabin's evolution from conception to execution, complete with commentary from Ryan Vaughn, performance car interior design manager with Chevrolet. The quick clip details how manufacturing, engineering and design within General Motors worked together from the first sketches to ensure no compromises had to be made later down the line. How novel.
With plenty of hides traced with contrast stitching and available real carbon fiber trim, the cabin looks to be a few hundred miles ahead of the C6. Given how readily critics derided the previous generation for its cabin, the C7 should make writers work a little harder to find something to complain about. Check out the video below for yourself.

2014 Chevy Cruze Diesel arrives with 42 mpg for $25,695*

Thu, 07 Feb 2013

The last time General Motors had a diesel passenger car in the US, it was the 1.8-liter 1986 Chevette. At the 2013 Chicago Auto Show today, GM is unveiling the much-anticipated 2014 Chevrolet Cruze Diesel. The compact bows with a 2.0-liter turbo-diesel four-cylinder engine that boasts 148 horsepower and 258 pound-feet of torque, with full twist coming on at just 2,000 rpm. What's more, the common-rail, direct-injection diesel features an overboost function that allows the engine to deliver up to 280 lb-ft of torque for 10 seconds at a time. Even with 10 more horsepower and 110 more pound-feet of torque than the available turbocharged 1.4-liter four-cylinder in the Cruze, the 2.0-liter diesel engine can return up to 42 mpg (highway) bolted to its six-speed automatic transmission.
If you're counting, that figure meets the less powerful Cruze Eco with a six-speed manual transmission. More importantly, the auto transmission Cruze Diesel matches its main competition, the Volkswagen Jetta TDI, in highway fuel economy. The Cruze 2.0 TD (as it will be badged) can also handle up to 20 percent biodiesel (B20), whereas the Jetta is rated only for B5. General Motors has not released city fuel economy for its newest diesel, but we do know how much it will cost you to jump behind the driver's seat.
GM will kindly ask for $25,695, plus an $810 destination fee. That marks a $2,115 premium over a loaded Cruze LTZ Auto and $2,640 more than the Jetta TDI, though the MSRP will net you a leather interior, 17-inch alloy wheels and an Aero Performance Package, as well as a two-year maintenance plan and five-year, 100,000-mile powertrain warranty. Compared to the gas-powered Cruze, you also lose a couple cubic feet of rear cargo space thanks to a 17-liter diesel emission fluid tank. That urea fluid, which helps put the clean in clean diesel, will need to be refilled at least every 10,000 miles.
