Exterior:
Car has only experienced one winter in PA, the Previous owner bought the car in Atlanta, moved to Colorado (car remained in garage during winter) for one year, and then moved back to Charelston, SC where I purchased the vehicle in '05. It was a Florida Only car from '05-October '07, and has been in PA since then. was washed each week during the snow of winter to get rid of the Salt that PA uses on the roads, and every 3 weeks otherwise.
-No Serious dents to the exterior. Minor dent on the passenger side next to the trunk lid.
-No Serious scratches to the exterior. Light scratches on the front/rear bumper, light to med scratches on the c pillars due to Snow Brush from PO. Absolutely no rust anywhere on the vehicle.
-PO causes some paint to be removed along the door frame on rear passenger door. Sealed and painted. No issues since I've owned her.
Interior:
-Suffers from leaky Sunroof drain on the drivers side C Pillar. Leak has caused adhesive from the C-Pillar to seep out and wick down the side cushion for the back seat down to the horizontal surface. Simple shampoo should remove the adhesive residue, however the drain hose should be replaced.
-DIS screen has begun to degrade since last summer. External Temp, Radio station, and DIS section are readable, but not complete.
-Drivers side front Door Speaker sounds like the cone as torn. This just occurred last week (04/24/08)
Accidents:
-The only major incident this vehicle has been in is I hit a raccoon at about 35MPH on the drivers side back in December '06 that cracked the Washer Fluid Reservoir (slow leak that did not become apparent until 1 week later). I pulled the front bumper and intercooler to inspect everything and found no damage. The fog light support was cracked in the bumper and the fog light was damaged. I replaced both fog lights.
-A lady in a Honda Odyssey backed into the Drivers Side Rear Quarter Panel and left a crease in the Quarter Panel and two small chips to the bumper. This was back in '05, and I have had zero issues with the paint chipping any more than the initial chips.
The car only has the following mechanical issues:
-Windshield Washer Fluid Reservoir is cracked.
-First gear is noisy since October '07 and sounds like the synchro is the source. Has driven fine with no issues (spirited and normal driving)
-Drivers side Tie Rod end needs to be replaced.
-Passenger Side Fog light Grille missing due to quick entry into a neighborhood that had a 1 ½ inch lip due to construction. Didn't notice it was missing for 3 days...
-and the Oil Dipstick handle is broken...stupid orange plastic ring...
Additional Items:
-Cargo Net out of my old '97 (the one with straps not just the elastic one)
-Matching full size spare (RS4 Celebration wheel)
-Catalytic Converter to go with car for new owner
-Original piping/parts to go with the car (Turbo Inlet, Throttle Body) and all clamps
That's everything I can remember at the moment.
Depending on interest, I may go ahead and pull the Test Pipe out and reinstall the CAT, Reinstall the APR Hoses, pull the Phatbox, and see if anyone wants to swap ECU's for the Chip, but I would definitely prefer to sell it as is.
