Just looking on ebay (I know it is a bad habit), and spotted this 1990 GT. Black on Black. Looks like a fair driver at a cheap price for a late model GT.
I'm kind of partial to that model year for some reason.
I always read about the jump post cover importance, but have never ran across why it being in place is so important. I purchased my 928 prior to knowing this or even about RL, but when I started reading ing I ran out and saw mine had the cover in place.

What is reasoning for this, or importance?
What Sean said and to add to that, it shows an attention to detail (or lack there of) when inspecting a car. If a car is otherwise perfect, but missing that....what else is missing you are not seeing?
It's like the green M&M's in the Van Helen contract. It had nothing to do with David Lee Roth's love for certain colored chocolate, it was their way of knowing if the stage manager read the contract.
yes we frequently tease about that cover being in place, but it is one small indicator of perhaps bigger things. Same goes for the rails under the car. They are deformed on some cars indicating that the car has been jacked at the rails rather than the jack points. The rails are actually the underside of the chair mounting rails in the car, and are not intended (nor strong enough) to serve as jack points. We often tease by saying a car is a "total" if those rails are bent. Obviously not, but the really good cars have those rails straight and true.
Don't have a picture, but they are the longitudinal box type rails under the car on each side, running from front to back, just inside of the edge where the jack points are. Look under and you will know immediately what I mean, especially if they are deformed, in which case your car should be considered totaled and sold to me for scrap value
