There is a small scrape on my front bumper cover that will be repaired next week. Other than that the body is straight.

Great car. Domestic owners around here are amazed how great these cars look at 5, or in your case, nearly 10 years old. We met some friends for dinner tonight. When they saw our "New" car after dinner they were shocked that it was 5 years old.

When I stopped at the audio shop today, the installer asked me "What year is your car? 06 or 07? I love that!

clean find and you even got the 17's instead of the ugly 16" wheels that would usually come on the 2001 base model.

Thanks! I could not deal with 16s and to upgrade and have to find 17s or 18s becomes an expensive proposition. My decision was based on the color combo and the 17s. I only wanted Crystal white/grey or Millenium/grey. The Nav happened to come with it and it works.
