@dparks – Answer regarding A/C and date codes on the tires? ...

Good eye! That front filler panel has since been replaced, i didnt realize this picture must have been taken right before it was fixed. Let me know with any other questions!

@dparks – Answer regarding A/C and date codes on the tires? ...

Thank you everyone for bidding and for the questions! I apologize for the delay I had a death in the family. I had an employee check on this for you and the AC does blow cold, and the date code on the tires came back as the 13th week of 2010. Its a great car, bid to win!

Have the Ron the A/C through all functions and if so do all the controls work as they should? Does the A/C blow icy cold?

@Alankieler – I assume the photos of the exhaust are prior to the new exhaust installation in February this year...? Also, what are the chances that the mileage shown is actual? ...

Yes that is correct, the photos were taken unfortunately before the exhaust was installed. The mileage is definitely believed to be actual, but we dont have a document to prove it. A quick look at the interior condition also supports that! Still smells new!
