Front seats have been replaced with a later set that looks dark grey, rather than black as the rest of the interior. It's obvious that the seller is clueless.

What option is it to get S front and rear bits on
an S4?
I appreciate the camera angles of not showing
the driver's side seat outside bolster. That's where
I have 'ware' on mine.

It doesn't look THAT bad...

Probably some sort of accident, and a repaint...

But it might be ok.
But anyone would be a fool not to give it a good inspection to see what is going on...

Maybe it's as we call it in Hollywood, "A one off"...one off his rocker in this case...whew!!! And I thought I hit the sauce to hard on occasion.

He obviously knows nothing of what he speaks but it may prove to be a nice project car for someone with the time but…I doubt it.

I emailed this guy and told him it wasn't an S4. He emailed me back and sait he'd had the VIN checked out and that it was. I replied that it wasn't and that he was misrepresenting the car. He replied that a specific Porsche dealer had assured him that it was, in fact, an S4.
Must be a "retro kit"!
The guy's a maroon.

He's busy calling me a black N*** cause I didn't do the research this particular he swears it's an S4. Actually he asked me if I was a dumb Mexican or a N****. I told him whichever pisses him off more.

This guys a winner.

"...resists air better than most sedans. This is to be expected in a porsche."

I think he has it confused with a 911 too.
