Engine:
With less than 1k miles on them, has new plugs, both o2 sensors(Denso), MAF cleaned, throttle body O ring upgrade, throttle body cleaned out and oil change with new filter. Timing belt was changed, with new idler bearings, new water pump, replaced the cam shaft seals, crank seal, new thermostat, tensioner was replaced, all new accessory belts, new upper & lower radiator hoses, and new coolant with Water Wetter. Engine runs strong, I regularly get 20-22 MPG HWY, and about 18-19 mixed driving. Has a K&N drop in filter, but rest of engine is stock. Oil changed every 5k with Castrol 5w30. Has a brand new Duralast Gold battery, with 8yr warranty.
Transmission \ Suspension:
Did a Hayden 679 transmission cooler about 5k miles ago to avoid the "strawberry milkshake". Stock cooler is completely bypassed. At that time, changed the transmission fluid, front diff fluid, transfer case fluid, & rear end fluid. Less than 2k miles ago, did the 99 tall coils with Bilstein shocks/struts. Front got new strut mounts. Car was aligned and had a 4 wheel balance done shortly after. I have the steering rack bushings and front sway bar bushing upgrade, but haven't had time to install them. They will go with the car, but not sure if I'll have time to install them or not. Car rides very solid, and is a good ride. No weird noises or knocks while traveling. Transmission shifts solid every time, and haven't had any problems out of it. It is driven about once a month in 4wd to ensure they system is working correctly. Tires are Michelin, and have decent tread left. The drive-shafts are lubed at the zerk fittings every other oil change, both front and rear.
Exterior:
For having nearly 100k on it, the body is in good shape. there are some typical rock chips, and some small dings. The only noticeable problems are some light scratches on both the rear wheel flares. Have buffed these out the best I can, but they are still there. Only noticeable when you are up close. The other problem is small amount of rust when you open the drivers door, by the rubber seal on the bottom. It has been there since I purchased the car in 2007, and hasn't grown very much. It is no larger than the size of a dime. Car has PIAA 520 Ion fogs that will go with the car. Roof rack and running boards have been removed, but will go with the car. Car has the optional Black Pearl Emblems as well.
Interior:
The leather is in okay shape. The rear seats are perfect. The passenger seat is good, but the driver's seat on the lower outer edge is starting to crack. The leather is conditioned once a year, but has still manage to crack in that one spot. Has Husky mats front, rear and also the cargo mat. Vehicle has never been smoked in, and other than the cracking leather, is in great shape.
Overall, considering the age and mileage of the vehicle, it is in very good shape. I've been working on cars for over 15 years, and do the required maintenance on a routine schedule to prevent problems from occurring. This has been a great vehicle to me, and am only selling because of needing something with more grunt to haul a large boat.
My asking price is $10,500
Car is located in Lexington, KY. Currently has a lien on the title as I still owe on the loan. Should not cause any problems with selling it, but does require the new owner to run a temp tag for about 7 to 10 days until paper work is run through to remove the lien. Title is in hand and goes with buyer.
