Right rear has a leak ($60 to rebuild) and when topped off with fluid, whole top system is functional.Amazing stereo - JL Audio 9 speaker and amp system componants. Cheaper head end but it has navigation, satalitte radio, and bluetooth capabilitiesDesireable AMG package and Zenon self-leveling headlightsNew batteryIncludes windscreen and coverMost parts from old engine are also included if desired (no block)
The BadInterior was dismantled to install stereo, and never put back togetherSide parking lot impact caused damaged to right front fender, passenger door and mirrorHood popped open while driving and sustained damage to hinge sysem and minor damage to hood panel and finish.Some interior parts are not with car - most notably rear view mirror enclosure/overhead consoleRear brakes are shot. Right rear especially
The UglyBody damage as noted and seen in picsMinor rust around antenae, trunk lock, and door hadle - generally good thoughInterior generally fair (door panels, headliner, carpet) but missing a few pieces - noted aboveLeather seat covers are shotConvertible top overall is fair, but rear plastic windows are cloudy and cracked
