Default 2005 Sapphire Silver Blue Metallic - 35K miles - SW FL - $10,000



This car gave me goosebumps when I first saw it. A real "head turner."
Great handling, all OEM, new tires, Very Good condition with just a few scratches.
Exterior: Sapphire Silver Blue Metallic; Interior: white/black


Recently, the BAS ESP light came on. I brought it to a local repair shop and they could not diagnose the
exact problem. He thinks it's an ABS issue but was not positive that he could find the correct parts.
The Master Cylinder was replaced July 2015.
If you want this gorgeous car, you need to act fast. No, this is not a sales gimmick.
Sadly, I will be trading it in next week reacting to the November sales campaigns.
$10,000 OBO.

There are parts available... What is the issue? And can you post some pictures?
Thanks

Hi!
The BAS ESP light recently came on and stays on.
When I brought it to a repair shop he could not assure me that the diagnosis was correct and that he could find the part that fit. He wanted me to understand that this is an 11 year old car and that many parts have been discontinued. I was disappointed and frustrated.

Unfortunately, I will be trading the car in next week.
The November sales promotions have made it attractive to buy another car.

If interested in my car, please text me at 941-979-6882.
I have posted four photos on the site.

My car had same issue when I bought it from used auto dealer. They determined it was a bad yaw sensor. They got a used one off ebay from an MB donor car for $50 (vs $800 new). Problem solved and ABS/ESP light off. Granted may be another issue but parts are available both new and used to resolve issue. $8k is a great price but can't imagine dealer trade is more than $6k.

This is a simple fix, less than 30 min.

Hi!
Thank you for your recommendation but I am beyond the point of dealing with repairs, etc.
I just received a call from the dealer that my new car will be available for pick up on Friday.
If you or anyone else is interested in the car, it should be seen before Friday.

Have a nice Thanksgiving.
