I wouldn't be able to get decent photos of my Coupe if I took them at my house and would go elsewhere to take them. I would think more of the seller for making the effort to drive somewhere else and take lots of good all around photos than a few crap snapshots outside the home. Looks gorgeous, especially for the price

Didn't get to see the hot oil pressure, as it was fairly cool when I drove it. Interior is pretty good Wheels need a refurb It has had some paint at some point in its life, which accounts for the slight colour difference spotted above - I reckon it could be down to the clearcoat on the painted sections going a bit matt - should come back with a good mopping It has a little corrosion in the usual Coupe areas (obvious when you know where to look), but surprisingly, the slam panel is very good (these seem to go very quickly on late models) Overall - needs a bit of TLC and effort to bring it back, but is probably a decent starting point for someone prepared to put in the effort
