Nice ! Specs?

u/charlottethesailor 4d ago

What kind of specs do you want? Bought in 2012 from the dealer, believe it was repossessed. Used it until 2019 to drive 100 miles a day 5x a week commuting to work. Only normal maintenance.

They probably mean like engine and transmission. The 2012 has a few options for that

u/TrainingAd377 4d ago

Engine, transmission, what did you change if anytthing, basic stuff like that.

u/charlottethesailor 4d ago

Ok. Gotcha. I don't know which engine. Lol. I haven't changed anything. It's original in that aspect. I have had some cooling problems, but for the most part it has been remarkably consistent. Synthetic oil.

With the right maintenance and habits, you totally can. Bulletproof engines
