Default Decent deal on clean 2000 LS

No affiliation with seller, but looks like a decent deal on a nice white with gray LS. 170K and interior/exterior look decent in the pics.

Appears to be a private owner in DFW area.

That is a great deal! I bought my 97 w/ 253k miles for 2700, so for the newer body style and 80k less miles, I would jump on that if I didn't already have one.

Just make sure the PS pump was taken care of...probably the cause of the alternator replacement, but you never know, the alternator could've been old and tired with 170k also.

Good price if the tbelt/wp service has been done in the last 40k miles. I would buy that for a spare... seriously... if i was closer

Good deal, def. look for leaks. I thought mine was fine until I tore into it due to very minor drips on the driveway. PS and oil leaks everywhere took me months to finally sort out, and I still need a timing belt. These engine bays are great at soaking up leaks for years before they hit the driveway lol.
