Hey guys, I hate to do it, but I am selling my car.
I love this car and it is seriously as close to a new car as you can get, in my opinion.
It has a few imperfections, but I will do my best to explain everything.

Interior:
Tan leather, near immaculate.
S70 cluster.
Sony Xplode head unit, amp, & subs - sounds amazing.
Very very clean.

Exterior:
Red, really nice, but gets a little hazy if it isn't waxed every once in a while (pretty normal with red 850/x70's I have seen).
A few dings, one in the trunk, two on the rear passenger door, everything else is really nice.
16'' Moda Radius with Pirellis, good amount of tread left - around 12k on a 40k limited guarantee.
20% tint on the driver and passenger windows, 10% tint from there back.
If you do not like tint, or do not like it that dark, the guy that did my tint gives a lifetime warranty including free tint removal..
Black grille with chrome lip, stock but looks really nice.

Engine:
107k miles, but the s70 cluster reads 137k.
Engine is in near perfect condition, I'm having it looked over tomorrow to see if there is anything wrong with it, I will update accordingly.
Transmission is great, shifts smooth, has an absolutely amazing feel to it.
Upper engine poly mount, under 3k miles on it.
Oil changes with Mobil 1 10w30 full synthetic every 2500.
Recent coolant flush.
New intake cam seal on distributor side.
The little hose going to the fuel pressure regulator is a little cracked, I will replace that tomorrow.

I will probably edit this post with more info later tonight.
I'm looking to get 2700 OBO, my cell is 484-547-9892 and my email is johnhirsch9@gmail.com
