The car looks nice , but something about the wheels looks weird. I'd check to see if they are real Fuchs.

The car looks real nice from here, except for the trash in the rear footwell. If a clean PPI came back I would'nt hesitate.

What's with that gap on the driver's door? Looks a little big to me. Other than that, looks like a nice one.

Are you in the market? GP White is a classy color, very nice. Buy it, then you have somthing to drive WHILE you work on the 75! Not instead of, variety is good.

It's a nice looking car... I think the wheels and spoiler combo looks very tasteful. The driver door does need a little realignment though.. no biggy unless it's been in an accident. Driver door misalignment is fairly common.

the driver's door looks fine...

look at both sides of the car...the doors match...looks like there is a black piece of rubber/something along the door edge...

Considering the panel gaps on both front doors look to be the same, it could just be a pair of those door edge protecting strips. The ad reads like the guy is a protective sort of owner (car bra, mirror bras etc).

Speaking as someone who's just spent a week stripping, sanding and painting my wheels, the Fuchs definitely look like replicas - they're too skinny in the "petals" - but who cares?

It's a sweet looking car, with some really good upgrades.

Be nice if he posted some pics of the engine compartment & trunk. Looks like a nice car. I saw a couple cars after I got mine that might of been better deals, but there's no looking back for me.

The "gaps" you see are infact a pair of black rubber door protectors. I have a pair of them myself. The car looks great to me. If you are really interested, make an offer.

i am looking for a friend, believe me, my checkbook was twitching! i looked at the engine compartment (kicking myself for not bringing a camera) it is pretty clean, he has a list of stuff that was replaced 6k miles ago. WUR, CSV..etc. he had some work done on a oil leak, it was a oil return tube, i noticed one was the expandable type. new OEM sparkplug wires. the truck compartment i think he left outta pics on purpose, he as two bazooka tube type subs in front. he didnt tie them down so they are subject to whatever physics you want to put to them. and he has some amps screwed to the side in sketchy fashion. brake fluid was not ATE blue, but looked clean. i couldnt look at the battery pan, because of the amps. my buddy is fighting with his wife as i type. Alfapwr, if i was looking i would jump on this one, at least start the PPI. PM me if you want.
