Need your all opinion... 1. color is black, being re-spray before (paint seems new), dono is it wan to cover up something maybe got some accident so re-spray before selling? 2. Engine being changed before, now is M43, dono original is what (cannot judge by the previous engine number.. anyone can teach me?) approved by JPJ. but i dono why is being change.. maybe its being abused until end of life? or is it end up at head on collision before? 3. the owner modify audio before... front got speaker on the door panel.. (totally ruin the thing.. passenger door panel got ppl use screw to tighten it up.. :( ).. rear got heavy subwoofer .. and some minor damage on the dashboard 4. the dealer said is leather seat.. but when i go there to see, its PVC seat cover only... and dono how the original seat underneath it looks... 5. the rough surface on the side skirt.. i thought is putty/bitumen... now only i know is original one... i thought got some repair down there before so i dono.. i should take the car or not it looks nice... it drives well but i got some doubt.. hope you all can give me your opinion. thanks [/QUOTE]
