One thing that I noticed immediately was the claim that the car "needs absolutely nothing" and then the first thing I saw in the first photo was the PS wiper blade missing.

First impressions are lasting impressions.

I personally like to be able to take people on their word and consider word choices seriously. "Needs absolutely nothing" SHOULD mean it really doesn't need anything at all, which is very unlikely to begin with. This makes it difficult for anyone to take you on your word / seriously. I'd bet that most of us could find at least a dozen things it "needs" in less than 3 minutes.

Just sayin.

Good luck.

Indeed. Items I can see, just based on the very limited pix:

- Rear sail panel trim has been painted black for some reason.
-Sail panel vinyl is missing.
- Dash is in absolutely terrible condition.
- Carpet is in marginal condition.
- Passenger side door lower armrest part appears to be falling off.
-Targa top rubber is torn and in poor condition.
-Lower door seal rubber is torn and in very poor condition.
- The above-mentioned missing passenger side wiper arm.

I will assume that there are more items that are not visible. Not saying this is a poor car by any means, but is very far from the "Needs absolutely nothing" description. I can see needing to drop a grand or more, easy, just fixing up the minor stuff I can see.

I will acknowledge that sail panel vinyl is not there but I personally felt the car looked better without it

And I've seen dash es 100 times wursh off


Other items listed may be in less then optimal condition but they are not absent .

Repairing or replace ing said items are a matter of taste
I can use and enjoy the car exactly as is .
If buyer wants to replace said items to pristine condition
That's there prerogative

But believe me if all that stuff was in mint condition
The price would be higher
