That's a purdy color combo. No rubs.

Either the fender holes were filled, or it looks like an original spoiler delete option (M470) with an added rear spoiler. The bumper shocks are blown front and rear (look for frame damage!), so perhaps the spoiler front cover was a later addition as well?

Nice color, i wonder if the whole car has been resprayed. Since the bumper shocks are collapsed this would indicate a front end hit so they might have installed a NON S front PU cover.
Also the ad says its a 4.7 liter it is actually a 32 valve 5.0, air cleaner is upside down

If the doors match the fenders then I would guess total respray. That front bumper support and the pushed back fog/blinkers looks TERRIBLE and is a dead give away of a pretty serious hit!

The bend at the rear fender looks weird. Could be the angle on the shot, but its sure weird.

At first glance, I thought it was vinyl, but it looks to be grey/green and white full leather. Nice.

Love the interior color combo, very unique! Love the exterior color too.

Bummer about the apparent accident history.

Possible odometer break issue also, in 2005 it had 67,594 miles, it now has 67,840. I suppose it's possible, but seems strange.

very cool color combo. I dont usually like light colored cars but its a nice shade. I do like the two tone interior with two pretty rare if not unique trim colors for that year.

It looks to be the original radio, option M158 - Radio "Monterey"

Yep, that the same radio that is in my car. My casette door is also off, I have it though. Some of the buttons on mine are no longer working also, like one preset, AM and SW, but FM still works.

So the front fenders have been repainted with the spoiler holes filled, or replaced with non-S... the dealer's AutoCheck shows nothing, of course.

Front bumper lights are recessed pretty much as far as possible.

Rear bumpettes/license plate area is sunken in (note big 'dimples' above bumperettes).
