It's a money pit.

When I got it, it had a bent rim. TIre exploded on the freeway (owner said that was the culprit for the shaking problem)... Got a new used tire and rim, $55. Rear tires were bad, put 2 new ones on the front and put the old fronts on the rear, $135. Needed all new brakes (and YES, I had the rotors turned), $201. Hole in exhaust needed patched for inspection, $91. That weld plew and ruined the whole pipe, $117. The charging system is going but I'm not sure what it is yet. The car shakes very badly when accelerating or holding speed, goes away when coasting... could be inner drivers but not sure wich side. Heat only works at one setting (full blast, the first notch).. AC works tho (only at full blast tho).. Headliner and pad TOTALLY gone, All i have is left over orange shizz on the cieling that looks rotten and keeps falling off, dash is cracked horridly badly, windows are dying (go up really slow)... transmission or clutch on its way (hard to shift, cant get it in 2nd at times without double clutching, reverse gear is about dead as when going fast in reverse, it pops itself outta gear).. O2 sensor is bad, resulting in a CE light at times, seat heater at least on driver's side is dead, shocks might need replacing, speedometer jumps all over, tripometer stuck and odometer stuck on 91619 (who knows how high it really is), idles at about 1100 some days, 850 even other days, just cant decide why, in need of a major tune up, upholstery in back seat area is horrid, "2" setting on dome light is shorting, among other things. It's a money pit. I paid $1000 for it in September, it sat for a while, and since I got my license in January, I've put a little over $750 into it to keep it alive!
