This car has been garage-kept... and responsibly owned since new, and the condition is very impressive. As it sits now, this car is well-sorted and in need of nothing other than a new owner who will use and enjoy it. Exterior: - Please see the video along with the listing, as the car is shown in detail. Blemishes are all shown close-up. Imperfections include a couple chips and spots of touch-up, as well as a ding on the driver’s rear quarter corner by the taillight. - Paint is original throughout, as confirmed with an elcometer. Paint gauge readings show between 2.2-2.9 on every panel, indicating that no panels have ever been resprayed. Body is extremely straight, with no bubbling or signs of body rust whatsoever. Black trim is all in great shape, with a nice deep black shine. Weatherstripping is excellent throughout, not dry or tired-looking. - Glass and light lenses are all clear and crack-free. Lights and signals are all functional. All four windows roll up and down smoothly and seal up to the top nicely. - Stock 15” wheels are very nice, with no curb rash. Just minor chipping consistent with 56k miles of road use. Eagle GT tires are in nice shape as well, and the DOT number indicates they are seven years old. Plenty of tread remaining. - White vinyl top has a small patch on the passenger side, but it in great shape otherwise. Repaired properly. White boot cover is a little off-colored but fits nice and snug as it should and is free of any punctures. - Panel fitment is spot on. Doors open and close smoothly. Interior: - Again, please defer to the photos and video. Interior is pretty impressive. Dash is mint. No cracks, discoloring, or warping. Really the only blemish on the dash is a tiny little scratch on the glovebox. Steering wheel also shows little-to-no wear. Ashtray has been removed in favor of a cupholder insert, but we will also send the ashtray with the car. Non-smoker car. - Gauges are all functional, and the odometer reading of 56,530 is accurate based on known history and observable wear throughout. - White seats have held up very well, and even the outer bolsters are free of any significant scuffs or wear. The driver’s seat bottom stitching is starting to coming loose along the center line, though only noticeable if you’re looking for it. Rear seat armrest areas show some very slight wear. Plastic seatbelt receptacles in the front are a bit cracked up. - Original red carpet is excellent. A nice deep red color, still nice and plush, not frayed and tired. - Air conditioning has been converted to R134a and blows cold. Records indicate a pressure test and recharge in summer of 2017. Mechanical / Underbody: - Please take a look through the underbody photos, as the car is documented in detail. This car looks quite good underneath. Mufflers were replaced just this year. No damage, previous metal work, or though rust. Very nice and dry overall. - The car runs and drives beautifully. It starts right up first turn, idles cool and steady, pulls hard through the gears, shifts smoothly, has nice, direct steering, and the ride quality is great. No shakes, rattles, or other noises of concern. The car tracks straight down the road, and brakes straight and effectively.
