Default Alcatara purchase update


The online pics looked flawless but the reality is that there are a few small issues.
Headliner is starting to peel.
Wheels are 16"
Ashtray cover is broken.
Side skirts are a bit rough.
Driver seat motors need attention.
Hood paint has the common Jag issues.
Other than that im really impressed.
The Alcatara interior is absolutely gorgeous, the carbon fiber is stunning!.
I prefer the updates on the 2006 to the 2004, nicer body kit.
The car drives beautifully, much better and tighter than my 04, even the doors and ignition seem to operate much nicer.
It was a risk buying without seeing and driving, but im happy with the purchase and hope to get another 100k out of it.
Im keeping the 04 as a parts car.
It passed safety and emissions, tho it has a P1000 code with the comp module not completed, so looks like the CEL has recently been reset.
