There are no dead or faded pixels on the onboard computer. There are no dings or dents in the body. This is a well-kept California car that has always been garaged, never smoked in, and it runs like new.

A custom car cover, factory mats, original owner's manual, service records, and a factory key are all included. The M73 5.4L 12 cylinder engine http://www.wuffer.ca/MyFiles/M73TechBrief.pdf is factory stock and (upgraded from the '95 M70 5.0L) is one of the most powerful in the segment. It runs strong and smooth. The transmission shifts with no slips or skips. The engine compartment is clean and free from oil or leaks. The engine does NOT leak any oil or fluids. There is less than 500 miles on four Goodyear Eagle F1 GS-D3 Z-rated tires. And both batteries have just been replaced.
