'88 DLX - eBay - Boulder, CO - 145K miles

Post by ARCHINSTL »

Another low mileage car in Boulder.
Very clean DLX with MT, AC, and cruise being sold by a tech school.
Possibly new transmission +; did not understand.

They've put a lot of miles on that car in 2 years?

Maybe it had 120,000 miles on it?

See if you can leave a note about the Club for the eventual purchaser (if you are not that person).
I certainly like the body-color side window frames; kinda makes the car look more integrated. Was that used on only/all of the '88s?

I think it was more than on 88s, a few years' SR-5s had black trim while 2wds and non SR-5s had no trim in place.

Trivia - this car is but 19 removed from the one that sold recently on eBay for $4050 in Colorado Springs to a Canadian purchaser - same color as well. This is the one that had but 75K miles. I guess the red inspired great care from Colorado owners?

Car is in very very nice shape but smokes.
It is identical in almost every way to my own 1987 Deluxe, even exterior and interior color and style.
It does have a lot less miles!
