I am trying to thin out the herd to make room for a truck (for those following, this is the thread about me looking for a truck).

I maintain all of my vehicles pretty well so you are getting a great running vehicle with no problems, except for what is indicated here.

Here are the good things:

• Timing belt changed at 90,000 miles. A little early but the previous owner did it because of age. This is before I got it with the insane amount of driving that I do.
• Spark plugs changed with OEM at 150k.
• Transmission flushed with genuine Toyota ATF at 150k.
• Shocks replaced with KYB GR2 at 130k. These are just straight replacements. They don't lower the vehicle.
• Strut tower brace from a Toyota Solara installed around 120k. This is a drop-in upgrade and significantly improved the car's handling.
• Throttle body cleaned, IAC valve changed less than 10k miles ago.
• Valve gasket changed less than 10k miles ago.
• Factory wheel was stolen. Replaced with 17" wheels from a Lexus ES330, complete with Lexus lug nuts and wheel lock.
• Tires are Toyo Versado LX II, with expected 60,000 mile treadlife. The tires are at 7/32" and so have at least half life left. Rotated every oil change.
• Oil changed at around 5k intervals with 5w-30 synthetic high mileage oil. Brand varies with whatever is on sale, but often Mobil1.
• Hood struts replaced several months ago.
• Tint is HP Solar Gard Charcoal, 35% front, 10% side and rear.
• Cabin and engine air filters changed regularly. Car gets avg 25 mpg on premium.
• All switchgears and radio/cd/tape player works. Power locks and windows, keyless entry and remote trunk.
• Car passes emissions with no problems. No check engine lights or other warnings.

Here are the problems:

• Overhead console light on the driver's side doesn't work.
• Broken trim around the passenger door handle.
• Paint is in pretty bad condition. The hood especially has tons of nicks from what could be hail damage. I got the vehicle this way.

I am asking for $4,500. This is par with dealer retail price instead of private party, but really this car is better maintained than anything you would find on a dealer's used car lot. The car will be fully cleaned. I am located in Houston, Texas.
