Scott, everything. And if you show a defect or three there is some cred that comes with that. My pic guy moved the seats forward and showed a bit of stuff on the black carpet that was behind and under the seat. Since the seats in a Boxster can rest against the bulkhead this is an area that one doesn't pay much attention to.

If there are asphalt streaks on the bottom side of the rockers, take pics. It there are jack dents in the floor pan, take pics. Take pics of the backside of the steering wheel and the pedals. It's hard to shoot through glass so use a phone for some shots. Shoot the door thresholds and jambs. Same for under the hood and hatch/trunk. If you are where the car is parked, show the floor, just make sure the shot is believable if you can.

Show all 4 tires so the potential buyers can see if they all match. Get a phone close up of the dates and tread. Find every nick and scratch even in the glass (maybe use some paper behind the glass and shoot with no reflection if you can). Get out the tool kit, jack, show the spare and any manuals. If there is paperwork, spread it out like fanning a deck of cards. Details of invoices are not important unless it's a big item that was described in the text. The volume of paperwork speaks for itself. If there are very few insignificant invoices, pass.

Sunny days at noon are the worst for pics. In the summer shoot at decent morning daylight or 6 to 8 pm. Take a light to illuminate areas that are too dark. Of course if there is a lift, great, but otherwise you need a way to shoot the bottom of the engine and trans. If it's nasty, so be it. Up front and honest looking pics get the job done. I don't know what the recommended photo count is but I'd say 200 is enough if there aren't duplicates. On that, avoid 6 different angles of the same thing. Just use the best shot and go to something else.

That emphasizes the state of the car. Also note things that are exceptionally good if something stands out. OEM stickers are always a good pic. For instance, IDT a new radiator core support comes with the fan belt diagram. If you find things like that, document them.

I once looked at a PU that was detailed very well but they didn't get the bed clean enough at the seam to not know how it was used. But I pulled down a visor and it was covered in construction dust on the top. Could hardly see the color. Whoops. Dirt behind the gauge glass is another one.
