How do you get a car so dirty? Look at the dash? Who wears out seat covers!?

Not bad at all for a 86 944. I mean normal wear and tear on my 2000 daily driver looks worse than that. The dash looks like cleaners, ozone, heat, and age did it in.

On the knee bolsters? My old 944 was an 86, it was in better shape inside with a LOT of miles.

Best quote in ad: "No complaints about this interior. The prior owner took great care of this vehicle's exterior."
