Tire
All four tires have an adequate amount of remaining tread depth with an even wear pattern.

Exterior
The wipers are worn and should be replaced. There are minor misc scratches around the vehicle. Normal for mileage and most too small to see in photos. The front and rear bumpers have light scratches. The front carbon fiber trim has minor gouges. Refer to picture 10. The front bumper has scratches to the underside. Need to be under the vehicle to see these. The paint meter read high on the left-hand fender, indicating possible prior paintwork. There are minor rock chips on the left and right side rocker panels. The rear right taillight film is torn near the corner. Refer to picture 32. The door mirror housings have miscellaneous scratches. front and rear bumpers have scratches present and the front carbon fiber trim has gauges present The side moldings on both sides show minor nicks and chips. The panel alignments appeared to be normal. The exterior lights were functional and working properly.

Interior
There is light wear to the seats. Normal for mileage. The right inner door panel has a broken trim. Refer to picture 79. The interior trim shows normal wear consistent with age and mileage. I did not notice any odd smells or signs that the car had been smoked in. There were also no signs of water leaks. The climate control system operated in all modes and blew the desired temperature. All the interior electronics appeared to operate as designed.

Mechanical
The air filter is dirty and needs to be replaced. The engine coolant level is low, with no obvious external coolant leaks the system should be topped off and pressure tested for internal or external leaks. All other accessible fluids are on level. It did not have any visible active fluid leaks at the time of inspection.

Road Test
A road test was not performed, as the seller stated the vehicle was not insured. I could start the engine at idle and did not detect any unusual noise. No error codes were detected after connecting my computer and conducting a scan.
