I would say it is a steal, is it AWD or FWD? Just be aware of transmission problems with AWD the rest of the car should be fine. I noticed that the coolent level is empty.....

99-2001 transmissions are,well,questionable.Their seems to be a lot of failure rate with these years.Although,I have an 01 w/98,700 miles on it,and still going pretty strong.Just doesnt like it`s own Toyota fluid,or Amsoil.I have to use the Castrol multy Import vehicle fluid,or 1st to 2nd slip`s
