    Here's another low-mileage beauty. Not an XS this time, but still in gorgeous shape with apparently only 17,000 miles on it. Asking price is only $10,995. I would normally expect a dealer to be asking in the $20k range for a car like this. There is a video as well, and he says that the owner passed away and the family doesn't want the car.

    For all the car's great condition, I do note one thing. There is no body side molding that should be running the length of the car on each side. This was standard equipment, so it should be there. It's often removed when a car is repainted, and it's sometimes not put back because it's in too bad a shape. So this does suggest that the car has been repainted, even though there is no mention of this in the ad or the video.

    Here's a similar car that does have the side molding. This is what the car should have on it.
