    Just wanted to give pseudo-public shout-out to Duydle. He is the nicest guy and went out of his way to offer a Facetime tour of the vehicle in question, pointing out notable items that I would otherwise not be able to detect remotely. I'm grateful to participate in a community with this sort of generosity of spirit to help each other out. I hope I can pay it forward in some way.

    I walk thru the entire vehicle front to back, top to bottom. Several things I notice were a very slight paint blemish near the hood ornament. You can only see it at a certain angle and you really had to look hard. This was where the repair was done. The driver side red side skirt had a rock chip. The front winglets had tiny white spots from small sand/rocks. The exterior was not detailed so it was hard to know if it was a paint issue or just washable spots. Interior looked great with typical leather cracks in the carbon fiber seats. Typical wear and tear. Carbon fiber all around, looks fabulous. Something missing from my Spider, wished I had the carbon fiber interior. Engine bay needed to be detailed and cleaned. Lots of dust. Windshield needed to be replaced as there are rock chips. Front tires needs to be replace, very low tread left. Rear tires looked new. I believe the dealer will replace the windshield and front tires.

    Overall vehicle looked good. Given the negotiated price, it's a very good deal for 2013 Red Italia with 13K miles.
