It is in Houston, I was wondering if you have seen the car before?

Maybe I am being too cautious but for such low mileage the gear shift lever seems to be significantly more worn than some cars that I have seen with 100K miles... Let me know what you think.

P.S. Sorry for posting so much, I am heading out this sunday to see the cars and I want to have a solid plan of action. I will be staying in the Austin area from Sunday - Wednesday.

There's a white on grey 2000 w/75K asking $10k in Dripping Springs on CL

no affiliation.

BTW, I may have said it before -- I don't like the 99's due to block/heads casting issues. Doesn't make other years immune, but the 99's seem to have a higher propensity to this
issue since the aluminum castings were outsourced.
