Pass side head rest backwards and brake fluid is low. If those are the only 2 faults I can find on this car, then it must be the biggest gem this site will ever see. :wink:

Got dang clean ride and I'm still in shock. Just thought about you and Silky have the 2 nicest rides here that represent the 50+ crew; I think there are just 2 of you that I know of.

This has to go to someone who will care for it, but it will be worth every penny. I would sell my car for the same money, so I think you should sell yours for more. Nate's old ride sold for over $6000 something like 3 years ago. GLWS
I think it helps being the original owner and the fact that I have issues concerning keeping my cars clean. I'm obsessive :rolleyes: If I were to keep it, I'd have to repaint it cause there are a few flaws. Some of the trim needs either to be replaced or powder coated to original. I have the top of the line dash cover and it looks great but there's still that crack in the dash... When you exit the drivers side, one's foot rubs the painted area on the rocker panel that is not seen when the door is shut. The paint is rubbed off from a lot of exits. I hate that. :(

The lower side rocker panel that's unique to turbo's has a nylon piece of trim that fills a small gap between rocker and body panel. One side cracked to pieces from 21 years of sun. There's actually a few threads I posted on this in this forum. There's no replacement. Ya it's hard to see but it bothers me. I tried like hell to find an equivilent but to no availe. The roof really should be painted. It's still white but the paint is old. Probably cause I waxed it 1,034,862 times. :-?

My son, in the short time he had the car managed to ding every wheel. They were perfect, then they got Alexed. I mean, how do you ding every wheel? He was never in England. Never been off road (that I know of). He definitely wouldn't have rotated the tires - he can't use a wrench. They still look great but they are not perfect. I hate that. :evil:

Someone please buy this car and take care of it so that I stop staring at it. All I do is run through ways of coming up with the money to buy it even though I can't really afford it.

Wow, just wow. Never thought I would see this day. Props for having one of the cleanest factory turbo cars around, easily worth every penny that you're asking. Good luck with the sale!

Oh wow, I have waited and waited for the day I would see this car go up for sale. This is probably one of the nicest (if not THE nicest) cars on this board. I really hope it goes to a good home. Good luck with the sale!
well-deserved high-praise from a couple known neat-freaks

I love a clean white car, good luck with the sale

Beautiful beautiful car Michael. I mean this has GOT to be THE cleanest CSM I have ever laid eyes on. This car is worth every penny you're asking and then some. GLWS buddy. Hopefully someone who knows how to take care of a car and not beat it to hell buys it.

Nope, not local. But a good home for sure. I've wanted one of these for over 5 years. Rest assured it will not be hacked and will be well taken care of. :wink:
