In late September, I chose and purchased a 2012 SE Premium Deluxe, it has the backup audio warning system. The car was located 3000 miles away from me, in Connecticut, Richards Chevrolet. Odometer a paltry 450 miles. The cars' first home was Vermont, where no one wanted to buy it! Best guess is, that dealership eventually defaulted on the loan, the car was repossessed and bought sometime thereafter, at auction, by Richards Chevrolet. Somewhere along the line the car was registered, so that was the end of "new car" status. Among the 43 photographs they took, I noticed the "check engine" light was illuminated. They jumped right on it, brought to Mitsubishi and they said a code was triggered when the Chevy dealer installed a new 12 volt battery in January this year. Code cleared, all was well. I arranged shipping at a total cost of $1200.00 to California. less than a week later I was cleaning my "new" old stock Miev. I took a big chance and it worked out fantastic. I find it amazing that this car had an MSRP of $35,000 in 2012 and now, five years later, with 450 miles, I can get it for $7469.00. Add tax, license and shipping and I am still shy of 10k. And this car has miraculously been well taken care of. Absent the new car smell, it is essentially new inside and out. My initial range findings are in the 50 to 70 mile zone. I have all 16 bars and CanIon shows 43.2 amp hours on the main battery. I done okay!
