Got my wife a 2000 95, 90 k miles, for 10k dollars. Seemed like a real good deal. Base model, auto, but seems to have most options except for top end sound system. Needed a few things, done all myself except for having muffler shop put on new flex pipe (they welded it !#) . both fogs lenses gone, relpaced with nice covers , don't need fogs right now. Cornering bulb connections were corroded . When i do get fogs, will have to get new connections/sockets for them. Oil + filter replaced (wix and m1 5w30). Air filter and plugs (mann and ngk bcpr6es- the ones I took out were gapped at 050+ !!) Rotated tires, and had to sledgehammer! off all wheels due to corrosion between hub and wheel- cleaned that up w/wire brush wheel on drill. Replaced rear brake pads- mintex. Rotors looked ok. Also cleaned rusty ? lug nuts, but they are already rusting again (New England Winter) . I have a 1995 Aero, with 334 k miles, and the lugnuts are the original ones, albeit covered by the center cover on the Aero wheels, but still..... I wonder if powder coating would help? Do not really want to buy plastic covers. Need to refresh some of the auto tranny fluid, do fuel filter, and I think that is about it for not . Belt loks ok, but when I do replace, I will get the new one that supplants the top pulley. This board is just as helpful as the 9000 one I have been using for years. Thanks-+ Happy New Year !
