Its time to sell my beater/commuter as i just picked up another honda and no longer need this.

1988 Toyota Corolla SR5 Coupe
FWD auto trans w/OD
grey exterior/grey interior
125k miles
Pwr sunroof
pwr mirrors
manual locks and windows
ice cold AC/great heat
pwr steering
cruise control
intermittent wipers
all weather floormats

The Good

Everything in this car works, absolutely no electrical problems, every option still works like it did when this car was new.
The interior is very clean for a car of this age.
The exterior is in pretty good shape as well, no excessive rust at all, just on the sunroof which does not leak at all.
Drives unbelievably good, no noises.
Car is also great on gas.
I have put about 15,000 miles on this car and prior to me it was senior owned since new, the guy backed into a mailbox and broke the mirror and spent $180 for a new one and had it paint matched, the car was very well cared for and it shows driving it.
The car also had a full brand new exhaust just prior to me buying it which i have the receipt for along w/ a bunch of other reciepts.
Also has a brand new battery and 4 new tires.
I drove this to watchtung hills NJ from brick about 70 minutes each way for 3 months straight and never had a single problem, the car is very reliable and I felt comfortable taking it anywhere.

The bad
the car has a shallow dent on the passenger door, from the prior mentioned mailbox incident, nothing that needs attention.
the driver door panel inside is cracked where you lay your arm.
Needs a new head unit, the original one does not work.
The car has leaky valve seals, so it will smoke for a minute upon startup only if it has sat more than a week, if its driven every day or every couple days it doesnt smoke when started, the smoke is just a result of a small amount of oil seeping into the combustion chamber after it has sat. It doesnt smoke at all going down the road.

I actually hate to sell this car, it has not let me down once, but I cant justify having three cars and I decided to keep the two hondas simply because of all the extra parts I have for them.

$1100 or best offer, this is not a project car, this is a turn key reliable commuter/ winter car, no more worrying about your honda disappearing or getting covered w/ salt all winter long.

PM me and post in this thread if interested, Pics will be up as soon as this rain takes a break.

thanks for the offer, but I'd rather keep the car around if thats all im gonna get.

 

you quoted me but didnt answer me and where is brick nj other than in nj

 

$850 is the best offer by a local so far, but like I said, im looking to get close to what i'm asking, negotiable within $100 or so but beyond that I'd be better off just keeping it, car has never given me a problem.
Brick is in central new Jersey on the coast, zip code is 08724.
thanks
