Astonishing condition. Arizona/ California car. Spotless Auto Check history, 57k miles documented. Completely rust free as undercarriage photos show.
BODY/PAINT
Two tone silver and gray is glossy and shines nice. Car panels are nice and straight, almost no scuffs or dents. Lights, lenses, headlamps, and signal lamps are all clear and functioning properly. Glass is excellent.
INTERIOR
Extremely clean, non-smoker, no odors. Heated leather seats show almost no wear. Exotic Zebrano wood accents. Dash looks great, no cracks. Center console and door panels are pristine and unblemished. Carpeting is great condition with no stains or wear-through. Headliner and sun visors are very nice. All dash controls and power window and seat features are operational. AC, sound system, and cruise control are fully functional and also accessible from steering wheel controls. There is an intermittent issue with the auto headlights and auto-courtesy lights due to a faulty sensor. I have purchased the correct sensor but have not yet installed it. It will come with the car.
WHEELS/TIRES
Factory chrome Cadillac wheels, no road rash, perfect center caps. relatively new sport/touring radials, P225/60SR/16 with approximately 70% tread life remaining.
MECHANICAL
The motor is smooth, transmission shifts nicely and the car is a pleasure to drive. No overheating or warning light issues, even when driven freeway speed with AC on in our 110 degree Phoenix summers. However, I have not gone through the car mechanically in detail, and because it is nearly 20 years old, I highly recommend all buyers have the car inspected by a third party before deciding to purchase.
