I've seen some nicer 'refresh' jobs than this one. As y'all stated, there are some obvious issues, and it is far from 'restored' (in my dictionary that leads one to believe 'returned to it's original condition). Also note the 'fitment' issues with the hood (uneven gaps between fenders) and hatch (sits a bit 'in' from the rear corner of the fender, and in other pix doesn't seem to be flush with the surrounding surfaces)... I usually don't like to pick at the cars of others, but the written representation for this one doesn't fit the visual one. Why would a car with 30K mi. show so many issues and replacements?

Hmmm. I see where they've wiped years of oil grime of the front of the engine and sump, but stopped about half way up the side of the block. And Didn't wipe the anti sway bar, or steering rack.

And they've replaced the diamond vinyl with carpet and plain vinyl.

Why would a car with 30K mi. show so many issues and replacements?

I dare say it has quite a few more than 30K based on the 'disclaimer' following the listed mileage.

Miles : 29218 (TMU)

This car was on Ebay a while ago. The oil on the sway-bar is the give away. I would not touch it. It seems that the seller is misrepresenting it somehow. IMHO.

(Not to hijak, but..) Ramses, that's a sharp looking car in your avatar. Is it yours? Would love to see some pics.
