It's Imola Yellow, one of the rarest colors for these cars. I am not going to tell you i need to sell it, i am not going to give you any BS about my wife.... I recently bought another car...and now have 5 cars in the driveway now... it's becoming a logistical nightmare for me, that's all. Car is being sold AS-IS, no warranty implied with this vehicle. This car is my daily driver, i anticipate that i will put on an additional 200 miles before the car is sold (so, up to 182,200). Keep in mind, I am not a mechanic, the service bills and maintenance speak for themselves. You are welcome to come and inspect the car if you would like. I will accommodate all requests besides joyrides. Adult owned, adult driven. Put gas (do your oil changes) and go! I reserve my right to cancel this auction early GOOD LUCK!!! Response to question May 2, 2015:------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Dear studio356, Hello, Thank you for your message.... "I think that the rust thing is scaring a lot of us off.... where and how bad is it?" Let me clarify this point... this is not "rust" like you typically think of, this is just surface rust... the area is approximate two inches in height and was due to a tire blow out that caused the paint to get removed in the area and then for "surface rust" to appear. This completely sanded out with sand paper (see photos). It can be repaired at a paint shop for between $150 - $250... so, quite inexpensive to repair. "Also, I see the bad, and the high milage, but I know that with a little TLC and throwing some money at it it will be OK.... but the milage is huge!" This car has received all the TLC you can imagine from me... you do not need to "throw" any money at it... i have taken care of everything including a recent overhaul of brake system, suspension system, exhaust system (see photos), chassis components (see photos). I replaced every worn out or cracked interior trim part.... i obsessed over this car!! "Any reason why you are selling?" As i wrote in my listing, i have over 5 cars now in my driveway... time to let go of one. Thank you and Good Luck!! -Ben- racetobid ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ EXTERIOR PICTURES: ALL FOUR WHEELS JUST REPAINTED AND BRAND NEW MICHELIN PILOT SUPER SPORT TIRES: REAR RS4 SPOILER AND AEROQUIP REAR WIPER: FRONT AEROQUIP WIPERS: ENGINE COMPARTMENT, NEW OPTIMA BATTERY (NOTE:NO ACCIDENT DAMAGE): REAR TRUNK HAS A LOT OF LUGGAGE ROOM!
