Drivers seat: twisted, need to buy new brackets
bottom of the seat will only lower and not rise, it is twisted as well.:sad:

Climate Control: Backlight will turn off once in a while. The wiring on the inside doesn't apply enough pressure in the connection socket to pass the energy to the screen. ( If that makes sense) just have to pressure it the right way and its fixed ( annoying to do it at least once a week):egads:

Interior: Dashboard is cracked , Rear seat leather is cracked( just bugs me, nothing serious), arm rest is cracked as well

Engine light comes on occasionally, code P1600: ECM BATT 2 or something ( I am currently looking into it), Rear of car makes metallic moaning while driving, I believe it is the wheel bearing since i can feel it in my seat while driving.

6 disc cd changer shows code ERR 16 (looking into it as well)

other then that the car runs good

love it!

thanks for showing interest!:D:woot:

388k?! wow hopefully the timing belt has been done on it, or is planning on its 4th change. good job getting her back to looking spiffy again!

You need to seal those headlights with some type of clear coat or they will get dull again real quick.

Ah man you shoulda kept the 95, everyone always goes for the 98-00s!!
