GarageScout Take
The family-held provenance and documented driveline work give this example an unusually legible baseline for a platform that is often modified. At 104,000 miles, it sits above the observed range for this generation. The 2016-20 Carfax gap, August 2023 towed accident, and reported exterior, glass, seat, and seat-belt issues remain part of the record.
Strengths
- Specific provenance from the original owner’s family, rather than an unknown ownership chain.
- Documented clutch, front-axle, starter, and transmission-fluid work at 77,053 miles.
- California registration history with no reported mileage discrepancies during the documented periods.
Watch For
- The Carfax report has a reporting gap from 2016 to 2020.
- An August 2023 accident resulted in minor damage and towing; repair documentation and a police report are provided.
- Exterior chips, scratches, bumper and side-skirt scuffs, and curb rash are reported.
- The car has faded headlight lenses, a cracked windshield with edge delamination, driver-seat wear, and a slowly retracting driver-side seat belt.
