And yet another eBay goof...
Will someone please tell him that his car is only FWD (denoted by the fact that it is obviously an LS and by the "K" in the vin.)
http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Cars-...m320256876634& This reminds me of when I bought a 94 LS I fought with the dealer because they insisted it was AWD until I had the sales manager look under the car with me. (At Kinley Subaru in Williamsport)

uhhhh, why can't you tell him? also, since the seller's name is bergenjessica, it's a safe assumption the seller is a gurl.

I was had a friend try to convince me his "Eagle Vision" was AWD on the basis that my other friends Eagle Talon is AWD and therefore all Eagles are AWD.
It then took me even longer to inform him that his "Vision" was no different than an intrepid aside from the name.

Yeah, that car's in Co, where snow is no laughing matter. I'd hate to be the guy who bought it under the assumption of AWD, to find that it was FWD...

It says it has anti-lock brakes, so it could have the "Active Safety" option which would include anti-lock brakes, AND AWD......
With no picture of the engine compartment there is no way to tell....if it has anti-lock brakes, then it has AWD too....

I thought only L models had the "safety package" available, while LS models came strictly FWD in 94, and LSi's had everything. Also, the "K" in the VIN definitely indicates it is Front Wheel Drive.

I was under the impression that all models and trims had ABS standard.

Nope... I don't have ABS Mine is L according to the Vin decode but recently purchasing insurance the company insisted it was an LS by the vin so I'm a bit confused

It's the other way around. All L models are FWD the LS had the option of FWD or AWD depending on the package.
