Picked this up today for $1200. Its an 02 SSEi with 148k. Motor is knocking pretty bad. Car is overall pretty bad condition, so it will be parted out. Lots of rust under the fuel door, front and rear bumpers are damaged, hood is aftermarket and is all scratched up, interior is filthy, suspension is tweaked, and tires are way to small. And thats just summing it up.

02ssei, I'm sure he has all of them on the shelf already. Shoot him a PM.
That car is really rough, but has a good amount of nice parts on it yet. It's hard to believe someone drove it w/ those tiny tires on it though. I can only imagine how far off the speedometer is...

Is that interior Camel or Medium Neutral? I don't think I've ever seen a 2002+ in the Brown/camel combo. I may have interest in some of the interior components if the price is right.

He did do the interior swap on that Green 00 w/ camel if you didn't see it, so he has a ton of camel interior parts.

Yeah, he even PM'd me about it; problem is I've got 2 accent colors in my car now. The Dark brown from the camel combo runs across the dash, and at the top of the doors. The medium neutral accent color is on the center console, the dash bezel, the steering column and the steering wheel. It's not that noticeable, and I don't mind, but if I were to find a 2002+ center console with the redesigned cupholders in brown, I would have a strong desire to acquire that.

This was by far the worst Bonneville I have ever seen. Once I pulled the seat out, I was ready to pour some gasoline on the carpet and throw a match.... but I continued on.
I threw away the carpet immediately after taking the picture. Like, I stopped what I was doing just to bring it to the dump.
Yup, not one, but two dead mice. I found traces of them throughout the entire car. You can just imagine the stink.
Luckily, after the carpet and stuff was out, it wasn't too bad to work on. Here is the final stage before I drive it down to the shop to finish everything else on the lift.
