This is a really cool Triple Blue Cabriolet that followed me home right before the **** hit the fan. My brother and I were planning to have a little fun with it but have decided to let it go in light of the current situation. It's an as honest example as I've ever seen. Two owners (I am the 3rd) and it's been in Vegas since 1999 and always garage kept. The previous owner used it as a daily for about 1o years in the early 2000's. The paint is in amazing shape, it's hard to believe really with only two small areas of concern shown in the pics. She fires right up with zero smoke and idles perfectly! The Tiptronic Transmission was recently serviced and shifts very smooth, this is my first experience with a tip and I was pleasantly surprised how fun it is to drive with 4 gears instead of 5! It's a tight car and drives very well. All I've done to it since I got was remove the window tint and clean it up a bit. It recently passed smog but DMV shut doiwn before I could there. It does have some leaks that need to be addressed, I haven't had a chance to get it on a lift yet but as well as it runs, it likely wouldn't take much to dial it in. A good pro detail alone would do wonders for it. The Smile and lower lip need a little adjusting but everything looks to be intact so that shouldn't take much at all to get sorted.
The Good:
Starts, Runs, Shifts and Drives Excellent
Original Books and Tons of Service History, Book was stamped from 1991 until 2001. $3132.00 Receipt for a reseal at the Dealer here in Vegas in 2001. 2nd owner was more of a DIY and has lots of maintenance parts invoices as well as several receipts from local independents.
The Cobalt Blue Paint is in Amazing Shape
Two Owners and a Local Las Vegas Car and Garage Kept since 1999
Obciously a very unique Special Order Car
Original, functioning Blaupunkt Stuttagart Radio
Dual Power Seats
Tires are Good
Top is a Porsche Top and in Good Shape
The Bad:
It has an accident on the Carfax, the PO told me it was with a bicycle and there was no paintwork done and I can find no trace of any. Apparently the guy's bike hit the wheel and he flew over the hood and hit the inside of the driver's fender which left a small dent but didn't go through the paint! There is a picture showing it, I think a good PDR guy might be able to fix it.
There is a small spot on the passenger rear quarter that has been touched up, also pictured.
The Driver's Seat is worn and the leather is pretty hard, passenger seat doesn't show much wear but does feel a little stiff.
Blue dye is worn off the steering wheel and the thread is worn off the seams on the top.
Blue dye is worn on the shifter.
It has some glue residue on one of the oil pressure gauge bezel from trim rings that were removed.
The gear indicator lights in the dash gauge isn't working.
The PO was a former smoker and there is a slight hint of smoke smell, obviously irrelevant when the top is down and I suspect a good ozone would get rid of it entirely.
It has the typical leaks since the engine has never been out, but it runs so well, once they are addressed the car will be good to go for years to come.
Needs Rear Rotors
The windshield is good but it's a no-namer and it seems like the antenna doesn't work very well.
Front bumper smile needs a little adjusting, should be an easy one.
I'll be as thorough as I can, feel free to ask any questions or request specific pics, I'm happy to FaceTime with anyone as well and we can do a walk around. I'll likely add more details here as I think of them.
