The programmer must be used with this car and cannot be used with other vehicles. It will be useful as more performance modifications are done. It is also necessary if for some reason the ECM needs to be reset to OEM.
There is no body damage other than very few almost unnoticeable road dings. The paint is in excellent condition with no major scratches and only a few blemishes.
The interior has a small crack in the dash and another small crack at one of the AC vents (see pictures). The leather seats are in excellent condition with no noticeable worn areas and no tears.
The Monsoon sound system is functional and the controls are in good condition, ut the right rear speaker is blown. Steering wheel controls for sound system work, ut left hand controls will not illuminate. The digital clock, hough accurate, ill fail to illuminate intermittently.
The passenger power window is slow, ut works.
The power driver seat works great. AC is good and cold. Cruise control is dead on and steady. Pop up headlights work great.
NOTE: The service engine light is on again. I have had the EVAP system repaired at least four times, ith the solenoid being replaced four times, he charcoal canister replaced, nd the lines checked for leaks with blue smoke. Each time I repair it, he light stays off for three or four days, nd then right back on. This only started after I had the performance fuel pump installed; I believe this somehow has something to do with it - mechanics disagree, ut two very skilled and well respected mechanics, ncluding one who does high end performance mods, an’t offer any other explanation for why it won’t stay fixed. My next move would be to remove the EVAP system, eplace the fuel cap with a vented cap, nd delete the code. THE CAR’S PERFORMANCE IS NOT AFFECTED! For now, just leave the cap a little loose.
Finally, he T-tops are in good condition with only a very small leak that only occurs after a prolonged and heavy downpour. There is no leak with light or short rainfall or with carwashes.
This vehicle is worth a lot more than I am asking to the right buyer. I am basically selling the wheels, ires, nd programmer with the car included!!!!!!!!!!
