it's doubtful that anyone is close enough to want to come look at it, but i thought i'd put it up FS here just in case. gotta sell my prizm. i really love the car, but i have a growing family and teenager drivers on the way. there's no way, my wife will let them learn in her camaros, and i can't afford to insure 3 vehicles. i don't have the patience to teach them on a 5 speed so... i've avg over 40mpg w/ just very simple mods and driving tech. the car has been well maintained and got new a/c last summer. i have lots of receipts for maintenance and repairs done. currently it has 158xxx miles and ~80k on the transplanted motor(~20k on the clutch). for those unaware, this is the toyota corolla twin(same drivetrain) w/ the VVTi motor. looking for a late model 4 cyl accord or camry w/ AT to replace it BTW. gotta a decent amount invested, so i'd like to get $2200 out of it. i'm in no particular hurry, but let me know(tax returns are on the way). pics: http://www.gassavers.org/garage/view/1239
We had a 2001 Prizm-AT- it was a good reliable car.The MT's do get considerably better mpg. Folks could do a lot worse than the Chevy Prizm- it is a re badged Corolla that was built on the same assembly line-in CA,( the plant that is closing-UMMI or something like that). Wish I was closer-NOLA- I would scrape up the $$. WHO DAT Luck Charlie
