The previous owner of my car was my great grandma. My grandpa took care of the car, and he did a pretty good job. The only thing that i wasn't so happy about when i got the car were the LARGE scrapes along the passenger side. I need to paint those one of these days...with my spare time and money. Here'* a pic...

The previous owner of the Buick i used to drive should be SHOT. They installed an automatic starter and decided to remove it when they got rid of the car. Instead of reconnecting all the wires like they had been before, they wrapped them in a LARGE ball of duct tape and left them, which caused ALL KINDS of nasty problems. Better yet, they managed to hide them so that they couldn't be found without taking part of the engine apart. *sigh*

Don't get me wrong, this car is mechanically perfect. I'd bet i've got one of the strongest nearly unmodded L27'* here, and my metal body work is great, my two problems are things being put back together wrong. The front bumper/air dam, and now the doors.

When I bought my car with 96,000 mi everything was original except the water hose. That means 10 year old plugs, wires, fuel filter, ect.... They get some slack though with the car in nearly mint condition and not even one crack in the leather. Also they put an aftermarket sound system in before they sold it. So I was happy with the purchase overall.
