I think it's finally time to get this car out of my driveway.
I bought it in September from Sumyungguy, but unfortunately hit a deer about a month later. You can read about the car before the accident here. Sumyungguy posted this in a thread of mine, and it gives a pretty good rundown of everything. You can read about the car after the accident here. Many people seem to think that the car is fixable for far less than the estimated $4250, but I just don't want to have to deal with it.
The car wasn't able to pass smog when I had it done shortly after buying, probably due to the intermittent idle problem.
Due to the lack of a smog certificate and the timing of the accident, there's been some DMV confusion. The car has no plates and would have to be fixed and re-registered by the new owner. Though the car mechanically is perfectly drivable, because of this it'll have to be towed away.
The tires are bald and will need to be replaced pretty much immediately. I wouldn't count on driving it more than a couple miles until that's done.
As for the rest, my links should pretty much cover it, but the interior is in excellent condition, it drives great except for the idle issue, and has been very well taken care of. The recaro seat seen in the last pic has been replaced with a spotless original tan vinyl sport seat.
Here are some pics after the accident:
