Paint on hood & sunroof dull and has some clear coat issues. "S" portion of 944S emblem on rear is missing. gearshift knob leather cover worn. Needs rear tires if you are driving it home. If I were keeping the car, would install Koni front shock upgrade. Front shocks are weak.
Interior is complete and shows signs wear commensurate with it's age. Latter pictures in gallery will show those areas of concern. Rear luggage area carpeting was already sun-faded prior to dark window tint being installed. Hiding under the carpet dash mat is a dash with NO cracks! The sound system is a JVC KDR620 which also plays CD's and has superior tone quality.Attempt to picture defects in latter part of gallery:picture 13------luggage area carpet # 14-----drivers seat cushion 15-----front hood paint 16-----rt rear of sunroof (paint) 17-----left rear fender damage
