Tires
All tires observed were matched by brand and had tread depths of 8/32nds. Spare tire is present. The drivers front rim had curb rash on it.

Exterior
The wipers are worn and should be replaced. There is significant body panel misalignment all around the vehicle in the front end bumper and headlight areas. This vehicle has excessive scratches all over the exterior. The front bumper has scratches to the underside. Need to be under the vehicle to see these. Missing trim cover front tow hook. The vehicle shows minor miscellaneous dings around the body. The paint shows some wear and tear. Both front and rear bumpers have spider cracking paint throughout and both are detached from the frame. The underside shows surface rust. The headlights and taillights are worn and foggy due to oxidation. The door mirror housings have miscellaneous scratches. Driver side front bumper is being held together by wire ties The windshield has a crack. During my inspection, I observed that the magnet could not be attached to the passenger rear quarter panel due to the absence of metal. Instead, body filler was utilized in that particular area. The exterior lights and washer functioned properly. The convertible worked as designed.

Interior
The steering wheel shows some wear and tear as seen in pics. There is light wear to the seats. Drivers door is missing the door handle. The inner door panels show wear. The interior trim shows wear. The center console shows wear and tear. The dash is showing wear and tear. ESP light is on. More diagnosis is needed. The carpet shows wear. The floor mats show wear. Trunk shows some sort of seeds might be some type of rodent inhabitant. I tested the seat features throughout the vehicle and they all functioned properly. I noted no smoke or unusual odors. The climate controls and interior electronic systems worked as designed.

Mechanical
The air filter is dirty and needs to be replaced. The engine oil is dirty and should be changed. Exhaust shows some surface rust, but at this time has no audible leaks. The brake fluid level appeared appropriate, and the coolant had the correct color, with no visual leaks noted in the system. Fasteners in the engine bay appeared generally intact and in place. Hoses, belts, axle boots, and visible bushings appeared to be sound. No visual leaks were noted from the engine bay.

Road Test
Electronic Stability Program light is on. Further diagnosis is required. I then took the vehicle out for a test drive. The engine and transmission performed quite nicely. While shifting through the gears and engaging the clutch, the transition of power was very smooth and concise. The engine and transmission responded promptly and acceleration was instantaneous. I got the vehicle up to approximately 80 mph and the car drove straight and true. During the test drive, I felt no vibrations or pulsations during the breaking process. I scanned the vehicles OBD system, and found no codes to be present at this time.
