Somebody needs to put some miles on that thing!
Gotta drive 'em to enjoy them to their fullest.

wow...I though my interior looked clean but holy cow.
So is this car going to retain GQ status, or will she be driven to within an inch of her life? Inquiring minds...

It was like driving a new car, straight off the showroom floor via the fanatic's timewarp. Just shows you what gems are still out there, if you are lucky enough to find one and if you are the kind of owner who can accept the challenge. This is really not the car to run on the track the occasional weekend. Its original, clean, and should stay that way IMHO. Turns out that was what Michael was looking for. Nice!

Excellent car! You're going to love it. I have the same color combo and just hit 28,500miles on my first spring drive last week.
Took over a year to find my car and it had a similar history with a long-time, loving owner. Knock on wood, 2 years later and it still seems perfect. Enjoy!!!!

I can certainly appreciate that car. It is in outstanding condition!
I could never own that car as I would be afraid to drive it and park it ANYWHERE- even as a Sunday driver. I've owned two brand new cars (not Porsches) and I drove myself crazy worrying about rock chips, staying clean, parking, racking up miles, etc. etc. etc. Call me nuts, but sometimes cars can be too nice. I'll continue to own nice, used, well maintained cars for the rest of my life. Super nice cars are detrimental to my health. Great purchase Sea. Hope you enjoy it immensely.

Seeing that car in the flesh made me appreciate my beater a little more. I like to drive her, not stare at her. I'd rather someone else worry about a concour car. But man, that was a sweet looking ride - like walking back into time.
