Not sure why swapped out wheels with some Carrera S's that have been painted black by someone. No sunroof either (not sure you care)??

My max offer would have been 71k. In any case, the suspension work and new wheels make me think something happened. Thanks for the advice.

Car is priced a little over where it should be. Low 70's would be the right number contingent on understanding more on the wheels and suspension work.

In your opinion, what would be an acceptable answer to why the tire/suspension work was done? Even then, i don't know if i could trust the dealer implicitly with the answer.

I doubt it is normal track wear & tear. What is puzzling is the bearing replacement at 500 and link at almost 10,000. They do not seem to be related.
