Very nice condition! Automatic is desired by some...too bad it's not a manual. Clock can be replaced; watch for them on eBay. Is the hatch not working via the key? Is the mechanism mechanical, or does a motor cycle the mechanism (later cars). If motor not running, try cleaning contacts and key mechanism. If earlier mechanical style (twisting key moves the levers) than should be repairable; look for broken or disconnected parts.

Also, if the hatch struts are shot, it will just lay there. Ask me how I know...

Very clean car, for sure. It's kind of a shame that a lot of the cars (of all types) owned by adults their entire life are A/T's.

Good catch on the bumper being pushed in. That would be best to just fix before people look at it. Its about a 1 hour job and $20ish for a used bumper shock. Then nobody can make a big deal out of the bumper to try to get the car for a low price.

I would say that $6k is a little high. IMO the auto trans makes the car less desirable. $4.5k to $5k sounds more in line. Either way, good luck with the sale.

I paid 5k for mine which is an auto with 95,000 miles . So 5k would be good for one with half the miles.
