Well guys the time has come to get rid of the wife's car. Honestly I am just sick and tired of working on it. She is the second owner and she loves this car. We ended up replacing it recently because there were just too many things going wrong at once for us to keep up with it. First off I will start with a list of things that has been replaced on it followed by a list of things that need to be replaced on it.

The good:
The 4G94 (2.0 SOHC) engine runs beautifully and gets great gas mileage
The body is in OK shape as far as no rust (other than on the door pillars which is simply surface rust)
The interior is clean and still looks good because I keep it that way
Has reverse glow gauges which change color between blue and green
Has a new trans
Has a new flex plate
Good brakes which were just replaced a few months ago along with the rotors
Has alot of new parts on it
Has an Evo grille on it because the stock plastic one looked like asshole
Tires only have about 4000 miles on them
I eliminated the rear O2 sensor because no matter how many times I replaced it the CEL was on for 3 years
Has good inspection
The Bad:
187,000 miles
Speedometer reads 10mph over all the time
The transmission needs to be pulled and reinstalled because the torque converter came out of place while installing it in my gravel driveway by myself (heavy!)
The car has a shitty paint job (I painted it with Rustoleum from a spray gun just because the old paint was so oxidized that it was starting to eat the metal)
There is a dent in the hood where a rather large icecicle fell from my gutter, I patched it but it's cracking again
Needs front and rear motor mounts (which I have new ones and will install)
Needs timing belt change (which I have a new one)
Needs a front driver's side ball joint (which I have a new one)
Needs a new exhaust (well, a flex pipe which I sell at work cheap with a 20% discount)
It has hubcaps
It's an automatic... :lol:

Honestly guys I would never dream of charging anyone an arm and a leg for this car because we are all like family here. If anyone is interested you can call or text me a 724-624-4398 anytime. If I don't answer right away either leave a voicemail or a text and I'll call as soon as I get time (I work alot). The car is torn apart in my driveway and I believe some time during the week I am going to pull the trans out again and see if I can get it running again. I am asking $1200 for it if it's running or $1000 if you just want to come get it the way it is. These prices are not set in stone and are negotiable so just feel free to shoot me an offer. I wouldn't use the forum for this because I don't have a hell of alot of time to check it throughout the day but my phone is always on. I'll primarily be using the money to get my Colt on the road and to pay some damn bills so any offer is good. I will get pics up ASAP. BTW, the car is black with a blue interior (as the car was originally royal blue). Thanks guys! Also, forgot to mention that the car has a Kenwood stereo in it with Sony Xplod speakers all around.
