He was asking $18K and got $17K for it...the car looked and ran like a 20K mile car..he was in sales so he drove it many miles per day!!

At 145,xxx I had the rear airmatic creating problems for me.....went ahead and did the coilover conversion. Changed out the torque converter at 137,xxx miles. Aside from that no problems and can't remember prior to 100,xxx miles ago.

Only reason I'm so interested is because I plan on driving mine for as long as I can. Why sell mine for 18-19k at 110k, when I can get 15k around 140-150k miles? Especially if I don't come across any problems!

I am looking at an 03 with 130k miles.

Other than airmatic, they seem bulletproof.
