RIP 2000 Alero Deeply missed. 11/7/2010-12/31/2010

[keytonic]

Glad your ok. I have plenty of parts cheaper then 1,800 only issue is it silver. I see you must be near the Cleveland area? a little over 5 hrs I'd meet ya half way instead of ship since shipping would be more lol

[Ttop191]

Hmmm, is it my turn to make a smart ass remark on how you can't drive like you did to me last year?

[kwhauck]

Sounds like you were following to close there hotrod, not to mention you let your tires get too bald......

[Ryan from Ohio]

That car is gone.

Part it out for what you can if its even worth it.

In that shape yard MIGHT give you $3-500 for it... What will you get parting it? A headache and people wanting a single piece of plastic for $3 shipped.

Yes I am bitter.

lol

[sfi3400]

haha i was on my way to get snow tires, lol my ventus were about 30% or so. but any way i just slid and its either him or a tree with a nursing home next to it


But hey i was able to pull my
silver star high and low lights
my Silvana turn signal the oily colored one
and the clear led that light up amber. if anyone wants them ill let them go for 20bucks shipped

[XanderWiFi]

I would have hit the nursing home. You might have been doing a favor for a lot of people...black humor-apologies.

[sfi3400]

hahahahahah that is mean.

but i found couple cars all i need is 2 grand for dp.

2000-2003 tiburon 5 spd miles range from 80k-95k asking is 5 grand
2003 eclipse convertible miles range 85k-95k asking 4800

[kwhauck]

I wouldn't buy either of those....

[sfi3400]

why you say that?

[Ttop191]

because they are both known to be extremely unreliable, and both are over priced

[sfi3400]

ttop are you on aim i have a honda ? i found a nice a$$ honda and pretty nice price

[sfi3400]

how about a 2001 honda accord asking 4grand with 80k

[FlyingSpoon]

I had very similar damage to my last alero, not as bad though, and it was about $5000 to fix it, but I needed a new rad.

[zzyzzx]

I've done worse and fixed it myself for not much money. I just pulled out the radiator support and replaced the bumper, grill, hood, headlights, and one fender. It was not difficult.

Lots of pics here:

I also repainted it myself, but the car in question is a beater so I used Rustoleum and my Harbor Freight compressor and paint gun.

don't forget ugly.......

[sfi3400]

the new tiburon are sexy i think and the 03 and new models i have heard good things about, especially the gt's


and 4 grand for a 2003 isnt to bad from the prices around my area.

[Ttop191]

I have heard nothing but bad things about tiburons, from friends, customers, everyone, they are quite unreliable, a lot of suspension and a lot trans problems.

As much as i hate to promote Honda, I do drive one, and as far as an 01 accord, i have a buddy with one, and its a really nice car and he's got over 200k on his. It wouldn't be my first choice, but that sounds reasonable for sure.

my buddies girlfriend has a tiburon 03 GT. sucks in snow. and ALL tiburons have the same problem... after awhile it will grind into 3rd gear. and be hard to shift it into 3rd. if its a manual... not sure about the autos.

Autos spontaneously combust at 130k
