    How does he know this? Airbags are like flashbulbs. The only way to test them is to use them.

    He took the bulb out of the cluster, so there's no 'SRS' light. Either that, or he assumes that when the horn honks, the clockspring is still good.

    I know they're 'factory' on this one, but I can't stand 'curvy' wheel spokes. Just don't like the look.......

    I wonder if he meant the air ride suspension still works?

    That's exactly what he meant. The air suspension on these cars is notorious for leaking and leaving the rear end sagging badly. I should know, I had a red one ;-)

    He means the air suspension has not failed (yet).
