1994 Geo Metro Xfi With Air Conditioning No Reserve on 2040-cars

I bought a new car and now I'm selling my beloved Geo Metro xfi. I drove a Metro because I wanted to. I could afford to fix anything that ever went wrong with the car and I enjoyed working on it, so it is ready to drive anywhere. I would trust it to drive to Alaska right now. It averages 48mpg in town and 52mpg on road trips. I drive slow but no hypermiling.

No Rust.

Car has 238k miles. I rebuilt the engine at 201k in December 2011. I did a good job on it (machine shop 0.020" over bore, new pistons, rings, bearings, new oil pump, studied forum posts before rebuilding). I have extensive prior mechanical experience and I am careful. It has given zero problems in the 37k miles since the rebuild. It gets Mobil 1 oil and doesn't burn or leak anything.

It does have xfi cam. Pistons have standard rings since they were new oversize pistons.

A/C installed by me with parts from a donor car. New filter/drier and O-rings. Super cold and never a problem with it in 3 years. Of course it affects performance and mpg but it's nice to have when you need it.

Transmission is a 4.10 ratio, not 3.79. Synchromesh oil. Shifts perfectly into and out of all gears. New clutch and clutch cable at 201k. 

All wheel bearings new within 3 years. All brakes are good. Calipers and rotors replaced recently. Brakes work perfect and no strange noises or vibrations. CV joints good. 

All windows roll up and down. All door latches work like they should. All door locks work. Rear hatch stays up by itself.

Professionally tinted windows with 3M film.

Ultra capacitor/12ah SLA hybrid battery. Starts right up hot or cold. Easy to replace with normal heavy lead acid car battery if you don't like it.

CD/MP3 Stereo with aftermarket speakers. USB and AUX inputs.

The only issue with the car is sometimes in the winter I smell a coolant smell from the heater. It doesn't consume coolant but I assume there is a slight wet area on the heater core. It's been like that for 3 years and never got worse. Windshield wiper control lever is not original but it works.

Fly to Reno, stay the night at my house, drive it home the next day. I live right next to I-80. Where else are you going to find a rust free xfi with A/C?

J.D. Power customer survey of dealers counts Cadillac, Buick as big winners

Mon, 14 Apr 2014

Cadillac and Buick have taken the trophies in J.D. Power's latest Customer Service Index Study examining satisfaction with dealer service. Surveying more than 90,000 owners and lessees of 2009-2013 model-year cars, the study found that those with pre-paid maintenance packages were ten percent more likely to buy their next car from the same brand.
Dealer satisfaction scores have improved overall, Cadillac nabbed the luxury segment ahead of Audi and Lexus, taking the crown that Lexus held last year. Buick keeps the mass-market dealer satisfaction win in the family, finishing ahead of Volkswagen and last year's winner GMC. The study also found that service department use of tablets increased customer satisfaction, as did "best practices" like "providing helpful advice." Who knew?
You can find details on those and more findings in the press release below.

GMC Canyon will debut in Detroit

Fri, 20 Dec 2013

With the debut of the Chevrolet Colorado at November's Los Angeles Auto Show, perhaps it was only a matter of time before we saw the small truck's GMC counterpart. That time will be January, as we've received official confirmation that the GMC Canyon will be revived at next month's North American International Auto Show in Detroit.
The news came in the latest issue of the Detroit Auto Show's newsletter, NAIAS Connect. The article hasn't been posted online quite yet, but it details the Canyon as one of the world production debuts slated for the show.
While we've heard rumors that the Canyon would arrive in Detroit, this is our first concrete bit of evidence. As we've detailed before, we expect the Canyon to be stylistically quite different than the Colorado, though the underpinnings will be shared. The teaser image we have above is currently our only look at the new truck. We'll hopefully have more details in the next few weeks as the GMC Canyon draws closer to its official debut.

11 vehicles from Barrett-Jackson Las Vegas worth watching

Fri, 26 Sep 2014

This weekend will see the world's collector car crowds descend on Las Vegas, NV for one of the biggest shows on Barrett-Jackson's popular auction circuit. There are hundreds of vehicles up for bidding, ranging from a brand-new Lamborghini Aventador to a spattering of Art Deco classics and a huge swath of classic muscle cars.
While it's virtually impossible to assemble an inarguable list of the best cars coming during the three-day, 700-plus vehicle auction, we've sifted through the listings for this year's show - it was a tough assignment, we promise - and assembled a list of what we think will be some of the most interesting lots. We'll admit, it's a bit heavy on American iron, but if you browse BJ's listings, you'll come to a similar conclusion. Still, scroll down for our list of what we think will be the most interesting vehicles at the upcoming auction.
