My apologies.... I hope my lingo didn't offend you.

It's an 4 speed automatic 3+ Overdrive.

Thanks for the bump.

The 4+3 is a manual, not an automatic. Bump for you...

Bump, Only thing different about this C4, then others ones selling for 5K +, is it's paint isn't that great.

Someone just bought a C4 with no motor for 5500 dollars!

This is a steal guys at 4500!

Lowered to $3,800 WITHOUT any stereo components.
Price is $4,300 WITH stereo components.

Found out I have another kid on the way, I need to sell this car to prepare for the new arrival.

Where are you in IL?

I think the price is still a bit high given the condition but would maybe like to see it in person if you are close.

Just a clarification on your post.....

Your car is an automatic with overdrive(just one overdrive speed, not 3), but not a 4 speed auto with 3+ overdrive. There is no such thing as a 4+3 auto. Your car has the 700R4 transmission which is a 3 speed with an overdrive, hence a 4 speed automatic.

Simple test....4+3 has a clutch pedal, 700r4 does not. Some people really like the 4+3 stick, others don't so this may clarify for those not wanting the 4+3 stick.

Christ.... It's an auto. It's the original transmission. It has 4 gears. 3 regular gears and an overdrive gear. If my language was confusing, the pictures are worth a thousand words.

Your language was not confusing, just plain 100% wrong. 4+3 refers to manuals only.

GLWS.
