Transmission: 4 speed automatic
Any major repairs?: Not really, just what I'd consider normal maintenance (rear ended twice and t-boned once - but those I fixed myself - t-bone was a hit and run, rear-enders were all no-fault = this state sucks!) Only one thing changed on the car - cut-off valve on the gas tank - $30.
