damn. I'd pay 1200 in a second around here. Only issue mentioned is an oil leak? damn.

Yeah, I'd think he should easily get $1200 for that. Looks pretty nice, though of course Livonia is still part of the greater metro Detroit area, which tends to mean foot flat on the floor whenever you're pulling out into traffic.2012 Mazda5 Touring | Finally working on the LTD again!

It's a nice GM aside from the oil leak. The only thing that I don't like about this one in particular would have to be those immovable vent windows in the front, they're just a blindspot that serve no real purpose IMO. I don't know what things are like in Michigan but here in NY that car wouldn't even sell for $600, so if I was you I'd keep looking for one that dosen't need a rear main seal.
EDIT: If you're looking for a 1200 dollar GM I think this one is worth the money. http://detroit.craigslist.org/wyn/cto/2636666370.htmlLast edited by 84GrandMarquis; 10-14-2011, 05:35 PM.

I'll take a rust free car with an oil leak over a rusty car any day.
No one (intelligent) ever scrapped a car cause of a leaky seal.

I'm not exactly sure how a window could be a blind spot though...and the pillar the vent window uses hardly covers anything to cause any trouble.

Vent windows are great on warm days. Pop them open to get cold air right onto your person.~David~
