Wow, what a compliment! Thank you! It sure is in amazing condition for the mileage, but it's certainly not perfect. Photos are always quite forgiving in that regard. Both bumpers need a respray, and the wheels need a refurb due to small nicks and scratches. But after that, I would say that it could be a show car.
