Some questions:
1. Looks like it was repainted. Was it a Maaco job, or better quality?
2. What kind of exhaust is on the car? Looks like two different tips in the pictures.
3. Any problems with transmission, original clutch, etc.?
4. Is there significant rust anywhere on the underbody?
5. Do you have any recent compression numbers? Any smoke? What kind of oil consumption?
In the pictures, it does look like a nice car.

Thanks for the info. Sorry I posted pretty much the same questions in both your threads. The site kept freezing on my computer this afternoon and when it finally worked, I thought my post disappeared.
Do you have any pictures of the rust? I assume you're talking about the black "aero" pieces in front of the rear wheels. Did you remove them? I'm really looking for something rust free since my current 7 may be too rusted out to fix and I don't want to start down that road again so soon.
Also, do you still have the emissions equipment on there? (I have to pass smog here.)
