Hi
I'd be glad to. It is a Maroon color which looks a lot better than it sounds. It has all the basic toys including heated seats and BBS alloys shod with Michelin Pilots.
I bought the car off ebay in October 2003 for $6,500 with 78,000 miles. It was in excellent general condition but it rode like a truck. After good advice on this board I determined that the accumulators were flat. As a first step I purchased 4 exchange strut accumulators from Texasoil and this made a massive improvement. This fall I will probably do the other remaining 5. Also although the car now rides and handles well, the suspension is quite noisy over poor roads so I think I also need to replace some bushes.
In terms of general mechanics the car is fine. I have replaced all the makor service items including plugs and also fitted a replacement fuel pump. The latest repair was number 6 injector which had gone bad.
