I have found this forum responds best to individual questions rather than a long laundry list...I'd suggest posting a specific questions in individual threads. By doing so, a forum member member (at a glance) can see the problem in the title and respond accordingly. Additionally, should a future member have a similar problem this approach makes the search function more beneficial. Just a thought.
Question...your car wouldn't be blue, or do you have a title (location) history? I'm asking because several years ago I looked at a blue/tan 2000 S with many of the same issues. I walked away, but it was a pretty car, just not maintained. Didn't help that the salesman (moron) broke the frunk release by trying to open the hood to look at the engine. Like I said...moron.
