According the the CarFax...8...before me. It's a weird report. Some of these people only kept it for 1000 miles. One owner kept it for 40 miles. People scared of it or have I purchased Christine?

Funny stories here. I technically the 3rd owner, but the one before me only had it for a short time. Sounded like he bought it, threw an exhaust on and and couldn't pass emmissions so threw it up for sale. I grabbed it and passed just fine after a re-tune.

Did he put on most of those 170k+ miles?? WOW! He must have loved that car. I'm glad you got it.

My father bought it new and drove it to 250k passed it down to me. I have a lot of memories with that car and plan on passing it down to my kids.

Default I'm owner number 3

I bought mine about 10 months ago from a guy that owns a mechanic shop Fallon NV. It only had 70,000 miles on it when I got it, now it has 98,000 miles on it, it's been my daily driver since I bought it. It was 100 percent stock with all the factory equipment still in it. I've changed the wheels, hood, stereo, and added remote start, back up camera, and second skin sound damping. The motor is untouched and runs perfect. It had the window sticker and all the documents from the dealership that it was orignally purchased from in the glovebox. The previous owner took very good care of this car.

My 2000 was a 3 year lease return that I bought in 2003 and have been daily driving it ever since. I have no idea of the previous owner history of my 2002.
