Enjoy the car!
I'm guessing that the seats are just fine. The perforated leather in particular can be tricky to photograph with a lighter colored leather like the tan. See my post in this old thread on interiors. Both the driver and passenger seats are in great shape, but depending on the angle the light hits the perforated leather it can look much darker/dirtier to the camera. This is most apparent in the top photo.

That was my original requirement as well. I just couldn't pass this one up when I saw it.

Yup! it's just pictures thankfully. Everything is almost like new. Still in shock that I found such a low mileaged one. It has all track records from day 1, including the sales sticker. Very well taken care by the first 2 owners, who were both older gentlemen. I'm going to be asking lot of cleaning product Qs, Guth. Lol. I appreciate the informative stuff!

Feel free to hit me up with questions any time. Most of what I've learned about this car along with the care of it came from this forum so if I can give back in some way I'd be happy to.

Finally picked it up over the weekend and it's flawless!! So happy about the purchase. The guy had some insane cars... 2001 NSX, 993 Turbo, 50 year Anni Mustang GT, Viper, etc... Very old friend of Arnold Palmer supposedly!

Wow - nice collection. You need a very large clean garage for such machines! Did you snap any pics?
