@pwallen or you are trying to get the deal of the day here...... Convenient that you are asking this stuff at the 11th hour
@brandywine Yes it matters. Knowing the mileage of the car and whether it passed emissions testing is pretty relevant to the value of the car.
@pwallen does it even matter what the seller says? assume its broken. Most likely impossible it hasn't moved in 10 years. at the mileage level on this car the mileage is almost irrelevant anyway, just my 2 cents
Are you there??? Can you answer the two questions I have below?
February of this year the car failed emissions testing. Was that resolved?
@Garyarisohn Youre saying they put one mile on the car in 10 years????
@details same wheels just completely reconditioned
@pwallen it works and was stored
Miles are probably in the mid 200's. or Even low 300's. The odometer clearly broke in 2013. These cars are renown for broken odometers.
Two different sets of wheels shown in the pictures. Which ones come with the car?
Is the odometer broken? Carfax has the same mileage in 2013 as the pictures?
