It looks good, but it appears to have the "shined up to move" appearance. The drivers seat shows major wear, while most thing's around it (IE: engine bay, body) have been shined up for curb appeal.

As a buyer, if I'm buying something to feel good about it, everything needs to be in uniform condition. Not just tire shine and wax. Not busting your balls, lol. Just giving you my honest opinion, you are asking for it on an open non-for sale section.

I agree with 99runnr, it looks pretty good, but a freshly shined engine always worries me during a purchase.

Thanks for the feedback.. I just finished detailing it. So everything is fresh.. It'll come down a few notches once it dries well. I have my rep on this stuff won't sell it unless it drives like a true 3rd gen.

Ty for the feedback

Just to add to the point made earlier. If I were shopping for a vehicle, and I opened the hood to see that, I'd say have a nice day.

Looks good. Every dealership details engine bays to sell used vehicles, and that doesn't automatically mean that they're trying to cover up some massive mechanical issue with the vehicle, though sometimes they are. Often they're just trying to make the product more appealing. So I wouldn't just automatically assume that's what your doing. I would ask for maintenance records, ask lots of questions, look at everything closely, drive it and listen and feel for issues, etc. and then I would make an objective decision if I were interested. I say good luck with your sale

I remember when my engine bay looked that good. Then I went though a mud hole.

I would recommend adding a nice set of letherette wet okoles to it, add the price of the seat covers into it and you will sell faster.
