Great winter / Gas mileage car (WI) Options

[subtleZ28]

SOLD
1999 Plymouth Breeze
2.0L 4cyl 5-speed manual
A/C, cruise, PS, PL, PW, Factory CD, keyless entry, alarm
*I've always got 25+mpg even in city. 35+ on highway.
*Adult owned. My in-laws purchased it new, used it to travel all over-it was to California last year. I'm the 2nd owner.
*NEVER smoked in
*new snow tires Yokahama Ice Guards, low miles on them-you can see the nubs in the pic. Rear tires also new snow tires, I forgotten the brand. I got these from discounttire direct, they ran out of the other brand. This thing is great in the snow...pretty much unstoppable w these tires!
*Runs/drives great.
*new front brakes
*new battery
*newer tie rod ends
*just had the water pump, timing belt and head gasket replaced. They checked the head and bottom end-didn't need service!
-Most of the high mileage problem pieces replace already.
This car has 161,500 miles on it. Mostly due to the long trips my inlwas took it on.

The BAD
-dent in rear passenger door (pic)
-small rust spot (a little bigger than a quarter) behind rear driver's side door (pic)
-inside trunk popper-lever-thing doesn't work, however, the key does
-uses small amount of oil (~1 quart per 3,000 miles) always has-Chrysler refused to fix, said it was "within tolerance". Doesn't leave spots, or smoke.

Mods:
*deleted trim and emblems! (it doesn't say Breeze any-where-any-moore - not the manliest car name)
*sweet steering wheel cover!
Seriously, this car is very nice. It would be hard to find similar condition in this price range. I purchased it as a winter car for last winter, and ended up keeping it through the summer(lots easier to haul car seats than the Z28). I'm only selling it now because I purchased a truck.

1st $1500 takes it.

Damn, I wish this would've been posted a couple weeks ago before I just threw money in my current beater.

Good luck with the sale.

Yeah, I wish I would have posted it a couple months ago, before the water pump went out. I paid over $800 for the water pump, head gasket, timing belt and related parts/labor. Should be good for another 80,000 miles now (for someone else) (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/banghead.gif) .

Coming to maryland any time soon? (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/banghead.gif)

If so I'd have this thing sold for you. My sister in law just wrecked her (nice) beater (by no fault of hers) and this car would really fill the bill!

No trips to the east coast anytime soon.
And the car is sold.
