I am listing my two 1993 Geo Metro Xfi's in two separate listings. This listing is for the solid white one without the black rockers. It has 13 inch wheels. I also have the original 12's as well. I bought this one in 2012 after my wife saw how much gas I was saving with my other one. She wanted one for her commute and I got lucky and found this one.
She drove it until 2013 when we relocated. She did not need it anymore for commuting. The previous owner told me he rebuilt the entire engine sometime when it was in the 160,000 mile range. Since I have had it, I have replaced a couple of wheel bearings, plugs/wires and a new fuel pump. I have not had it out on the road in about a year since dropping the insurance. When I did have it out it ran fine on the highway and was getting 45/50 mpg's. I do go out once or twice a week to start them up and sometimes drive them around my big backyard just to keep it moving.
It was idling rough at times but could never figure out what the problem was. It wasn't terrible enough for it to stall and it was intermittent. But again, once you are out on the highway it ran very smooth. It has little quirky things, like the drivers door window regulator gets out of whack and really needs to be replaced. I disabled the auto door locks a long time ago, they never work right and can drain your battery anyway. It could use a paint job. THERE IS NO RUST! The drivers side door release just broke on both of my Metros. It still works from the inside. You can buy replacement door releases on Ebay for around 6-10 bucks. I've had to do this a few times, not a hard fix.
If I can think of any other things I will add them to this listing. I'm sure if you are looking at this car, you know about their legendary gas mileage and ease to work on. I'm not a mechanic at all but was able to maintain these. Lok up Geo Metro Xfi's and the Geo Metro Forum-Got MPG's if you want to know about these cars. I do know when the gas prices were going through the roof a few years ago so was the value of these little cars and I'm sure the gas will get up there again. I just don't need these now since I moved out to truck country.
Shipping will be the buyers responsibility but there is no rush if you need time to arrange something.
Since this car has sat, not registered or insured I would recommend hauling/towing it to where you need it to be.
Be sure to watch the video of the car running and check out my other Geo Xfi auction.
