I'll guarantee the front fender won't rust....

Looks really clean and I like the mileage. Reminds me of my first Bonne.... she wasn't as clean as yours though and she was a 95.....

Radio, power windows, mirrors, other powered crap stays powered even after you shut your motor off and pull the key. Only upon someone opening a door will these powered accesories be defeated. And...after a period of time (10 minutes?) if a door hasn't opened, the power will shut off.

So....say your done cruisin' around town for the evening (listening to your favorite AM radio station of course while checkin' out the ladies)...and just as you pull up to your house, your favorite Barry Manilow song starts playing.....what'* a fella to do you ask? Well, instead of sitting there in the driveway with your bonne idling so you can finish listening to that oh so fine, soft rock melody.....you can now just turn the car off and as long as you don't open the door, you can enjoy the mellow tunes for awhile. (also works if you forget to roll a window up....you don't have to move the key to the "on" postion if you haven't opened a door...just hit the button and roll 'er up)

That is the code for the three knobby unit. Not sure why it references "aut"......it'* not like you have to light the pilot to have or add ice cubes to the system for cold. :?

Woah! Nice ride there John!

But seriously, now that you've also ditched YOUR '89 and bought YOURSELF a '93, are you going to start dressing like me too or something?

What becomes of the '89, anyway?

Looks really good though. My theory matches yours, that a previous owner pegged a deer with it or a pedestrian, or something. Looks like they did an awesome job matching everything up though, so it'* all good.

I see a dealer plate. Hope you didn't get taken too bad on her.

I've considered showing mine off, but it'*... less than pretty yet.

Nice find.
Really makes me miss my 95. I love the wood grain interior.
I noticed the gill right away, looks like the one on the 95 I had. Deer theory makes sense to me.

wj, the computer selected suspension means a computer matched the spring rates into a matched set before they were installed. All of us have those codes.
