Hmmm....
Exterior:
- Deep scratch in hood (requires new hood; just an excuse for my buying a CF GTR hood... hehe)
- Silver window trim is always covered in water marks that don't go away
- Small dent in one of the silver exhaust tips
- Small ding, driver side, under the body trim and between the driver's door and rear wheel-well
- Small ding, trunk, by key-hole
- Scratches in a circular pattern from my car being egged with a single egg, driver's side, just behind the driver's door
- Semi-deep scratches on rear bumper, driver side, from my brother's golf club (9-iron) falling and hitting it (excuse for a new rear bumper!! hehe)
- Sideskirts on both sides are missing 2 clips each (in the middle-ish part, so it isn't really noticeable)
- Rear jack-pads missing
- Front bumper has holes from where the license plate was screwed in (I don't run with a front plate)
- Small ding in windshield
- Passenger side foglight missing one attachment point
- Foglights are scratched to hell (no big deal, as I'm getting an M-Tech2 bumper with foglights)
- Missing the rubber "gasket" that goes between the top of the front bumper and the lights/hood/fenders (makes it look like there's a gap, but bumper is fully tightened)
- Missing same rubber "gasket" in the rear (also looks like a gap)
- Small bits of curb rash on my DPE's (not really noticeable unless seen from up-close)
- Brake-calipers have superficial rust (fixing this weekend with silver Dupli-Color ceramic caliper paint)
Interior:
- Peeling "paint" on the center-console, specifically the cup-holders and the area around the e-brake
- Small cracks in leather, driver's seat (Leatherique-ing it soon; Recaro's will fix the problem here in a year or so)
- Black mark on rear seat, passenger side
- Wear and tear on the steering wheel
- Leather on e-brake handle looks like someone chewed on it for a minute or so
- Unidentified rattle in dash
- Squeaks in the rear
- Tape deck (yes, I have a tape-deck, but b/c the 6-disc CD changer is in the trunk) makes weird, loud noises when I use the iPod tape-deck adaptor
- Sunroof "cover" sliding-thing doesn't move like it's supposed to; all four clips are broken (sunroof works fine)
- Sunroof-motor cover is glued into place as 2 clips broke
- Cover for the lower "storage" compartment (that has the cigarette lighter in it) is no longer auto-open/close, but it does still lock
- Passenger seat controls missing one cover
- Passenger seat rail missing plastic cover
- Driver's interior door handle wood-trim is spider-webbed
- Driver side A-pillar has a few small black marks in the fabric
Both the interior and exterior problems are small enough to not be a problem at all, but many are reason enough to "fix" the specific problem by upgrading the part (i.e. carbon fiber hood to get rid of deep "cut" mark). The rest, like peeling cupholders, are just superficial.
Mechanical (none of the "Needs..." are problems, just maintenance due within 1k miles):
- Needs new guibo (flex-disc)
- Needs new spark plugs
- Probably needs new differential bushings (occasional "clunk" in the rear)
- Slight "vagueness" in the rear, despite RTAB's being replaced ~1k miles ago with PowerFlex units
- Could stand to put in new wheel-bearings on all 4 wheels, as I imagine they're worn at 92.5k miles
- Needs new transmission fluid
- Needs new differential fluid
- Needs new power-steering fluid
- Small tear in sidewall of one tire
- Needs new VANOS seals
- Needs new valve-cover gasket
- Needs new O2 sensors
- Needs new camshaft position sensors (intake and exhaust)
- Power feels lower than it should, and is a little choppier (hopefully the above maintenance items will cure that)
Almost all of the mechanical stuff is just routine maintenance, and I'm just going to have it all done at once here in a couple of months. I'm at 92.5k miles, and would like to get it done around 95k-100k miles. Other than what's mentioned, the car is in phenomenal mechanical shape.
