FOR SALE is a 181k mile 2008 Amazon Green over Oak with Heritage Bronze powder-coated factory wheels. I bought it on BaT last year, and it's hood and roof clear coat were in very poor condition, with various nicks and scratches in the paint overall, but I loved the color combo. When I picked it up in Birmingham, AL, it was obvious the battery was on its last legs, so I bought a new one as soon as I got home. After seeing the hood and roof in person, I decided to fix the clearcoat, and in a massive case of scope creep, ended up completely painting the whole thing. Along the way, the AC system failed. It turned out to be the compressor, so I bought factory Denso compressor, compressor clutch, and condenser components, and had them professionally installed. The 275/70 BFGoodrich Mud-Terrain T/A KM3 that came on it definitely look cool, but were loud, rode relatively poorly, compromised on-road handling, and as it turned out didn't help with fuel consumption, so I changed the tires to ones that were more road-worthy. That turned out better than I hoped, because it rides better, it's quieter, handles better, gets slightly better fuel consumption, and has much less road noise. At that same time, I thought I'd check the spare, and it looked fine, but turned out based on the date code it was probably original to the vehicle, so I also bought a brand-new tire as the new spare. I acquired a set of silver factory wheels in great shape, but they're also set aside, might use them on my 100 if the opportunity presents itself. I just love the Heritage Bronze too much to swap them onto the 200. There were wheel spacers on it when I got it, which made the stance look great, but they were very cheap, and actually caused a wobble at highway speeds. Pretty sure they came from Temu. 
Those will go in the the trash, if I can find them.
There is currently a lien, which will have to be paid off before the title is transferred to the new owner.

When you say $28k, BTW, please be aware that doesn't include the buyer's fee of 5%, so "my" price was actually $29,400. Most people are aware of that, but I'm just clarifying for those who might not have bought a car at auction. Trust me when I say, at now $30k OBO, I'm losing a ton of money, but I am getting pressure from the S.O. to thin the herd, and as I mentioned I have another use for the capital.
