AI Listing Summary

5
The car has several cosmetic issues including misaligned doors, a blemish in the lower driver's door, wind noise, dings around the body, a crack in the dashboard, and requires an adjustment for the parking brake. Mechanically, the fuel lines require replacement. While it has been registered in California from new and has a clean Carfax report, these issues indicate it falls into the 'Above Average' category, requiring moderate reconditioning.
