Hi all
the wife found a '95 for sale today that she really likes so we went back to look at it.
Was interested in your opinions of the car and the asking price.
it's a '95
Aqua color exterior with light grey interior.
Paint and interior are in excellent condition except for the common issue of the rubbed/worn drivers side seat bolster and a very small paint chip in the gap between the drivers side door and hood.
78,000 miles
new battery and new BFGoodrich G-Force tires
current owner has garage kept the car but i can't answer for previous owners.
Overall the car looks in excellent condition. the only fault I can really find is under the hood. it's not that it's in bad shape at all but you can see that the front suspension componets and the aluminum? componets on the engine have some oxidation on them. For a ten year old car that's really not unexpected but it does take the car down a step from "show-level" condition. Shows would not be a big priority as it would be more my wifes car and "toy" but i used the term such so hopefully you would get a better idea of how i'm evaluating and trying to accurately describe the car. Other than that and a light layer of road dust on the engine the car looks pretty well cared for and maintained.
we are supposed to take it out for a testdrive tomorrow to see how the wife likes it but with the condition I saw the car today i'm not expecting any unpleasant surprises......... but you never know of course.
opps forgot to mention the two things I did see wrong with the car:
1. starting to get cracking on the door weather stripping. I think it would be fine for another year or two but eventually will need replacement.
2. the top is the tinted clear top, not the solid color top and on the passender side front corner than along the front edge are two cracks. You can see this in one of the pictures I have of the car in the link below
here is a link to where I put pictures of it up on my website.

asking price is $13,500 but I get the feeling it's negotiable.
any comments or feedback is greatly appreciated especially since I know a LITTLE about C4's but basically i'm a C2 guy.
Thanks!
