It's just that time that
  • Purchased in 2019.
  • Tires have about 13,000 miles on them, spark plugs replaced around the same time.
  • Oil has been changed with OEM filter.
  • Battery replaced about 3 weeks ago.
  • Body has a 3-4 small dents and one of the wheels has a bit of rash but nothing major.
  • Front seats are in good condition
  • No modifications to engine/body/chassis etc - Fully stock
  • Cold/hot starts are fine.
Vacuum died before cleaning a few spots in the interior so I'll get that finished. Can send me a PM here and we can go from there.

EDIT: Not interested in trades or swaps.

Thanks for the pictures. i expect some of the more curious individuals (like myself ;-)) may ask for a underhood picture.

- is that a picture with the old tires? the date code on them says very early 2018.
- compression tested?
- how much underbody corrosion and rusting? Maryland cars can be hit or miss (i live here and have seen a span).

I will get pictures of the engine bay and underneath up later today. Those are the current tires on the car, I put about 11,000 miles on the tires since ownership and they had about 2,000 on them when I bought it.

I second getting compression numbers and maybe some underbody pics to show how much rust is on the undercarriage. Was this car driven through winters in Maryland? I am also in the market for a R3, so I am interested.

Do you have closeups of the dents?

Also, what is the black rectangle on the trunk for?

Here are the pictures of the engine bay and underside. To answer some questions, no this was not driving during the winters in Maryland, I have a daily driver. And the rectangle thing on the trunk was there when I bought it. Radio receiver? I have no idea, though I have seen at least 1 other one on the forum with a similar looking box there.

I'll get pictures of the little dents tomorrow.

I had a compression test done about 4 months ago:

Front Rotor: 7.5 7.7 7.5
Rear Rotor: 7.4 7.6 7.6

Just so I don't have to answer this more in PMs (also going to edit the original post) I'm not interested in trades or swaps.
