Exterior:
The exterior shows and presents well in this stunning uncommon Montreal Blue Metallic color. The car was cared for its entire life and always garage kept. The paint has a great shine and the metallic flake looks awesome in the sunlight. There is no rust on the body, jack points, etc. Undercarriage photos are provided. There are minor paint chips/blemishes on the car that I tried my best to picture/video, please view the google photo album. This includes, a few on the hood, and nose panel. The most noteworthy spor is on the rear bumper, which has a small crack above the trim and some paint missing under the trim. There is also a few light scuff marts on the quarter panel above this crack near the tail light. Some other small exterior imperfections include, a ding and paint chips on the tail panel under the trunk, the trunk latch metal has cracked (common e36 issue), drive side fog light crack, and scuffs in the paint on the bottom edge of the front bumper. The soft top is in what I could call good/fair condition. There are a few small pin holes in the top and the rear window fabric has started to lift. The rear window is still sealed so I would imagine the next owner could glue the fabric back down. There is an included matching hard top with stand if you do so wish to drive the car in colder weather or want to reduce road noise in the cabin. The hard top does have some minor flaws and scratches from moving and normal wear. The headliner has become lose as per.Again, overall the car presents extremely well and has gotten lots of compliments.
Interior:
The interior has held up rather well through the years and compliments the exterior color nicely. There are no rips, tears, or anything out of normal light wear. The heated seats are a lovely option for those colder months. The driver seat shows very minimal wear on the bolstering and bottom seat. The carpet has no major stairs or holes. The panels are in good condition with some minor lifting on the passenger side lower leather. There is an aftermarket head unit installed with Bluetooth/AUX/USB capabilities. All windows, convertible top, A/C, heat, and speaker function as they should. There are a few dim pixels of the lower on-board computer but the writing is still legible.

Mechanical:
The car was maintained throughout its life and it shows. The first owner was said to be a physician, the second owner was an overall car enthusiast and owned the car for 18 years. The car drives very smooth and the suspension and steering is still tight and responsive. I drove the car on a 400 mile drive last month and it did not skip a beat. The tires do show a date code of 2011, have around 11,000 miles on them but show no signs of cracking or wear. The oil was changed about 1000 miles, just prior to my ownership and is still visually very clean. The underside of the car shows no signs of concern other than a small power steering leak in the hose. This is a very common issue for these cars but I still wanted to be transparent and mention it. I have not noticed any drips on the garage floor nor have had to fill the reservoir. The previous owner was unfortunately not great with keeping official records but I do have hand written records that were kept showing date, mileage and what was replaced.
