Sorry... I can take more if needed.

Hello. I acquired this car in July and would like to find a new home for it. It has the 2.4L non-turbo engine and automatic transmission. The odometer works and reads 124,262 miles, though the engine was replaced earlier this year by another shop - I don't know why, and don't know the mileage of the current engine. The check engine light is on with codes P0300 and P0305, if memory serves. The young lady I bought the car from drove it regularly, but wanted to put money towards something newer for her growing family.

White exterior with heated black/charcoal leather, no sunroof, manual climate controls, Body is actually in very good shape with no real dents, dings, or scratches - the windshield/roof trim is peeling a bit. The interior is in decent shape. Driver's outer door handle is a little difficult to pull but the door itself still opens/closes. I popped the timing cover off and the belt looks a bit worn, but it appears to have a new serpentine belt and tensioner. While I haven't had it up on a lift or done an in-depth inspection, a quick drive around town yielded no funny noises or vibrations. There's oil in the engine, it seems to run smooth and have all its power despite the check engine light, and the transmission shifts well. Stock wheels and wheel covers with semi-decent General snow tires.

I was going to keep and use it for my 4-hour and 200-mile daily commute (love that non-turbo MPG) but have so many other projects as it is and can't justify the car. It's been used for the occasional run to the parts store, but has mostly been sitting.
