Kentucky Armory Club

1999 Corolla VE. 5 speed, 164,500 miles.
Tires decent
Battery good
Had regular oil changes all its life

If you're looking for the performance of a Ferrari Enzo and the comfort of an Escalade, this is not the vehicle for you. Need a pizza delivering, bop around the city, dirty, inconspicuous on 32nd street hoopdie, this may be you.

Issues:
Left Rear Bumper dented from being run into at a light (hit and run)
Driver door was dented all up and banged back into shape from my being side swiped
Burns about a quart of oil per 1500 miles
In extremely cold weather (below 20) the car won't turn over sometimes. If you pump the clutch you can usually get it to go. I believe the shutoff switch you have to depress with the clutch needs replacing or bypassing. There is a wire next to the battery you can touch to it to power the solenoid and start the car should this happen in the winter.
Suspension doesn't feel great but I don't know it means it's bad

I gotta get $1000 firm

A/C?

Yeah but after getting a new car I'd say it needs a charge. It's cool but doesn't kick ass like the Kia does.

Has the timing belt been changed?
Just curious?

The only belt I've ever had changed is the serpentine belt. I'm it not a car guy. I have the oil changed and when something breaks I call a friend.

Hoopdie!

This is a steal at you asking price. I'll pass the word around.

Is a real bitch to sell a car on Craigslist. I post it and within 4 hours it's on page 7. /bump

I really could use this as a backup car. But I just don't have the space for it. Other wise I'd be all over it.
Plus I'd bet it gets way better mileage than my '94 F150!

Anyway, GLWS

Little bit. Like 31mpg

Buying or selling anything off Craigslist is damn near as bad as Facebook...haha

Don't see many other options.

I agree...

Later this afternoon I'll probably be taking the car to Carmax and selling it to them. They gave me a very good offer. I'll let it go before that for $900. Better move quick though.

I've dealt with Carmax twice now, once for my mother's car and once for mine, and they're easy to deal with.

I don't want to sell to them but I have an insurance payment coming next week if I don't peddle it

Gone. Carmax owns it now.
