Oldsmobile Aurora (1998)
for sale

Price: US $2,500.00

Description:

If you think you remember seeing this listing last year, you have a good memory!
Obviously, I'm not desparate to sell this car. If it does not sell this time around, the listing will expire, and I'll eventually re-list it when I get around to it...(especially when Ebay reminds me with an offer to restart the listing at no charge).

But don't sell yourself short- watching the listing only to then have someone else come in, make a bid, and win it out from under you uncontested.

This is a 1998 Oldsmobile Aurora. I bought it as new. It has always been a California car, so there's no rust-through. It has never left California, except for a few occasional trips to Las Vegas. CARFAX is correct- this is a single owner car.
The current mileage is approx 120, 302 miles. The mileage may change by small amounts because it is still used for local commuting.
This car has the diamond-white tricoat paint. It also has the Bose Acoustimass premium stereo. All 4 tires are either Z-rated or W-rated, in fantastic condition. The 2 front tires were purchased in September 2015.
The paint's clear coat is dead. It has just now started to bubble, and it is also checked throughout. As you can see, despite the dead clear coat, the diamond white still shines well. There are 2 spots where the paint has started bubbling. Each spot is about the size of a quarter.
The interior needs a good detailing. As I said, this car is used daily; it is not a collector car that I bring out of an underground silo on the weekends...nor do I toothbrush the crevices for dust every Sunday. The dash needs to be pressed down with some double-stick tape. This is a non-smoking car...no smoke odor. In fact, there is still the odor of leather when you enter the car. The driver seat has the normal leather wrinkles in it caused naturally through use. The car has never been involved in a collision; you can see how straight the panels are.
Maintenance was done on time without fail, for example: oil changes, always with 100% synthetic oil (Mobil 1), and always with AC-Delco filters. I used AC-Delco/GM parts whenever at all possible...such as spark plugs, PCV, Delphi ignition wires, even GM disk brake rotors (at a premium price). But sometimes, one has no choice but to live with non-GM yet high-quality parts, like Gates belts and hoses.
I do have a small supply of maintenance and replacement parts: AC Delco air filters, brake pads, ACDelco premium oil filters. These parts are included, as I will have no further use for them. Included also is the full set official GM Oldsmobile shop manuals, purchased from Helm, Inc. No greasy fingerprints on the books.
A phantom, sporadic, occasional CEL shows up and then disappears on its own. I feel no degradation in performance whether it is on or off.
REASON FOR SELLING:
I bought a new car. I don't need 2 cars. I hate to let go of this collectible, legendary car, but regrettably, it is time to do so.
ADDITIONAL NOTES:
This car is not for sale to hyper-critical buyers. This car is sold as-is.
More photos are available if you want to see them. The photos are in .PDF and I will e-mail them to you.
Call me at
213-200-2138
. I will return your call in a few days. You can also send me e-mail. However, the car is located in Los Angeles and I urge you to personally inspect the car and then make your own final decision after your inspection. If you waive the right and my suggestion that you inspect the car before buying it, that's fine with me. (Suppose you are in Kansas City and you just want to buy the car and engage a car transport service. I have no problem with that. I will help make it happen by working with the transport agent that you've hired.)
I am selling the car with these advisories:
-with all present and future faults
-as-is
-where-is
-final sale
-no refunds
-no lawsuits
-no buyer's remorse
If you cannot or will not agree to this, then I refuse to sell the car to you.
For your safety and my safety, I will meet you in front of the nearby police station for inspection of the car.
PAYMENT:
Chase bank is one block away from the Los Angeles police station. Please bring your cashier's check and meet me there. After the bank accepts the check, I will turn over the keys and sign the final notice of transfer paperwork.
Note: I will have cancelled the insurance on the car. For your protection, before you purchase it, you must inform your insurance company that you are thinking about purchasing the car and you want to get valid coverage for it before you drive it home. You must bring an insurance document showing this car's VIN and a valid driver license. There is a grace period with most insurance companies. You can tell them you want to insure this car because you are interested in buying it. If the sale does not finish, your insurance company will take it off your policy, usually at no cost because you already explained that MIGHT buy it.
As soon as I give you the keys, my financial and legal interest in the car ceases. A notice of transfer will be immediately filed with California Dept of Motor Vehicles recording this change.
I'm not a car salesman, but the vehicle dealership where I bought my new car required these items; so I assume it must be prudent to require the statement of sale terms, proof of insurance, and driver license.
OPTIONAL NON-REFUNDABLE DEPOSIT:
Say you've inspected the car and you like it, but you cannot make a decision on the spot. I will accept a $500 cashier's check as a lockout fee. The $500 is fully applied to the purchase price if you do purchase the car within 120 hours. If you DO NOT purchase the car within 120 hours (5 days), your $500 is lost. The $500 locks out other buyers in favor of you. I might still allow others to inspect the car, and your lockout deposit will be disclosed to them. If they express firm interest in the car, they must wait until your 120 hours have expired.
Because after 120 hours, your $500 deposit is gone, and so is your right to purchase the car. I'll give you a receipt indicating I have received the $500 deposit and the terms of the non-refundable lock-out deposit.
This is a lengthy description. It's lengthy because I want clarity, it's not lengthy to confuse you. If anything requires additional clarification, please let me know.
