Typical crack at back lower corner of spoiler on both sides. #2-4 aren't noticeable except up close. The rest of the paint is GORGEOUS! Shines like brand new, o fade or spidering. 5.

I looked for this car (black/gold/5.7/5 speed/rust-free/garaged/original-looking/hardtop/cloth/GTA) for several YEARS!

The money is needed elsewhere, o sadly, ut necessarily must go.
