It's going to be awhile before I can drive this car again without pain. I pulled my groin muscles shortly after buying this car and getting in and out of it is killing me. Wish I could save it for later, but I can't afford to. I'm very happy with my Previa right now. I have to climb up to get into it. I'll heal eventually, but I also need to get something with better MPG for the moment.

Note: I peeled the white plasti-crap off the rims revealing the nice silver OEM paint. After 5 coats of white and 5 more of clear, I was only able to wash them once. Black is a better choice.

Say it isn't so, why couldn't you have posted this 10 days ago . . . ? I know, you weren't injured then.

I needed a backup to drive and just picked up a 1999 Mercury Mountaineer last monday.

I would have preferred your SVX, I have a set of mounted studded tires ready to bolt on to it.

Good Luck,
Dan, your kinda sorta neighbor from the other side of Portland.

Aw bummer. I would have loved for it to go to someone on here.

I'll probably give it the month and then part it out. Did I mention that I am interested in part trades of older Subarus OR high-mpg econoboxes of LESSER manufacturers?

Why would you part out a car with a perfect body and good engine and tranny?

PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE - Hold out as long as you can.

If you still have it in May or June, I think I'll be able to take it off your hands.
