The previous owner had two kids who scratched the car up a bit so he had a cheap-ish Maaco-style paint job before he tried to sell it. There was bad orange peel (you can see in the pic of the spacers), a few dents, and some other uneven spots.

While it might look ok in the pics the car did desperately need paint!

WOW! I envy you for having saddle interior. I almost want to give up my black for saddle after seeing those pictures. It's definitely unique!
