Its got almost 160k on the car, but a newer motor. They have a Yamaha V8 motor. The cams in the current motor are welded, as they had problems with bearings in these motors. That is the fix for it, and the number one thing people due to the SHO's to increase reliability. I have I think about $6000 in receipts from the last 3 years with the car. That includes one certifying that the cams had been welded. It did have one small area of rust over the rear passenger wheel well. It was patched up, but isn't a great job. Has some clearcoat peeling on the front bumper, but nothing major. I was going to get a bra to cover it up, but haven't gotten to it. I haven't had the car for very long to be honest. I'm still waiting to get the title, but it should be here any time. Only reason I'm looking to get rid of it is to get a 4x4. Here's some more info on it: engine was replaced and the cam sprockets were welded(anyone that knows these engine knows thats the only major issue w/these motors)have the receipt from NESHO on the work done. grey leather interior,factory JBL stereo w/6disc changer,sunroof,new rear calipers,four new rotors,and pads all around,also the receipts i have show,new battery,altenator,ground and power wires to alt,new brake lines, a few coil packs were replaced,front wheel bearings,end links. quick rundown on the sho package ax4n atx tranny 3.4L yamaha 32 valve v8 four wheel disc brakes w/11.7" rotors up front SARC struts SHO specific bumpers daul exhaust(afaik all cats were removed) "skateboard" rear spoiler(actually functional) automatic light sensitive headlights JBL stereo w/four speakers,two tweeters and a "sub" digital eatc(climate control) SHO specific leather seats w/increased sholder and thigh bolsters center consold w/floor mounted shifter.
