History
Purchased in 2003 from credit union - a repo with 104,000 miles.
Black on black with auto trans.
My wife overheated it severely at 169,000 miles when the plastic radiator neck broke off and she continued to drive it for a 1/2 mile to a gas station causing the aluminum head to crack. Thus the transformation began!
