I know I have missed some of the good stuff/forgot about it. As an honest seller, here are some of the issues/past happenings. Please read entire paragraph:
Other Information
*Anytime a buyer mentions "minor issues include" buyers raise an eyebrow. But my intention is to be honest, not hide anything. Car is still as clean as advertised above. It overheated slightly (2/3rds of the way) on a hill climb in August 2012. After diagnosis, the headgasket was the last remaining culprit- to which the chemical test barley registered anything. I could drive more than an hour without needing to check the reservoir. At the time, I could not afford that repair or had time to do it myself (former college student). The mechanic suggested I use Bars Leaks Permanent Head Gasket Fix (a copper based liquid). To this day, and over 10K miles later, there have been no issues with that. Distributor O-ring leaks slightly (I have new ones), very small manifold exhaust leak at WOT as well. And that's it. If the new owner should decide to favor 100% peace of mind and replace the headgasket him/herself, I also have a new OEM GSR Yamada Water Pump and OE Continental Timing Belt (GSR will fit LS as long as the compliment one another). But as stated, it runs and drives fine.
*Car was in one very minor 5 mph impact in 2010 which was professionally fixed by a Toyota Bodyshop.
*Car was tracked at a HPD Event (ITR Expo) for 1 weekend.
(Original asking price- $5,800. Reduced to $5K due to above mentioned to compensate).

Last but not least, you all are my TI family. You know the ins and outs of this car almost as much as I do, so if you have any questions just ask! I'd love to keep it in the TI family. I am not in a hurry to sell. Rather, to find it a good home. Good luck! (And I am not going anywhere! I'll be on the site).
