Have the V8 on Craigslist for $4900. I think my kids would be better off in 
a smaller car to start with too.

Did a list of what's what off the top of my head.

Has new battery
No issues running, driving, steering, shifting, lots of power and brakes 
quickly, smoothly and straight.
Timing belt was done at 140?K with new pump, seals and all rollers $1200
Regular oil changes
Brake fluid changes
Trans fluid changed
Coolant changed out every 2-3 years
New spark plugs and wires.
Front brakes were done a few years ago, new rotors
New fuel filter and pump
Engine Sensors
All bulbs were replaced  - inside and out
Oxy sensor, Stainless exhaust tips
New Sony audio system, Infinity speakers, cool trunk/spare mounted sub.
Selling with stock wheels which tires with lots of tread left.

Assorted small dings and a few scrapes signs of minor impact on the lower 
body. Nothing that couldn't be touched up easy enough
Cracked windscreen
New rear calipers, should be bled again. Brakes fine tho.
Parking brake - I have not used it, needs rear? cable sections
A/C needs to be recharged as the 134a leaked out
Certainly due for an oil change - I use 5W30
Engine oil leaks (leaves a a few loonie size drips on the garage floor after 
every run) but doesn't drop much in level between changes (maybe a liter 
every 2.5K)
steering rack is original
no warnings or codes
cruise control is intermittent
one rear interior light missing a button (fell off)
coolant bottle could be replaced (it is repaired with a threaded pipe now)
