GOOD:

Overall exterior condition: No dents anywhere on the car. Normal rock chips on the front bumper and on the hood but nothing major. Hardly any scratches on both sides of the car, back bumper was recently repainted by a professional at my local Audi dealership last fall and has 0 scratches. Garaged this car every night since I bought it new. Most of the day this car is garaged since my office has garage parking. Paint is in excellent shape.

Overall interior condition: There are no rips or tears in the leather. There has been a child car seat in the rear passenger side seat for the past 2 years however indentations will improve over time (so I'm told). Non-smoker. Did have a dog once in the back of the car, there's a few small "claw" indentations around the window sill but they are very minor and hardly noticeable. Overall I'd say the interior is in great/excellent condition.

Overall mechanical condition: Only issue is a minor (and I mean VERY minor) power steering leak. I've been dealing with this for years and I've never once had to replace fluid due. Level barely moves.

-Timing belt, water pump, spark plugs, etc. all replaced at around 95,000 miles (everything documented in my owners manual). Brembo brake pads (all 4) recently replaced last year (2016), one of my back calipers went bad and completely wore out my brembo pad, replaced with aftermarket. Front rotors replaced in 2015, rears in 2016). Front calipers painted copper.

-Engine mounts replaced last year (2016). HFL system replaced last year (2016), purchased from a member on AcuraZine. I've been putting 93 gas in this car for the past 4 years starting in 2013. Oil changed every 5k miles.

BAD (although I wouldn't classify these as "bad"):

- A few lights have burnt out around the navigation screen
- Minor power steering leak noted above

UGLY:

Nothing.

Other Notes:

I do have all season floor mats somewhere in the basement. I'll find them and have that included in some updated pictures. Apologies for the night shots, I'm extremely busy at work and will do my best to get day shots of the interior. I also have a set of Mach 11 19" black sating wheels with Conti DWS 06 All season tires. I bought them new for 1,600 last year, they have roughly 300 miles on them. One of the tires is throwing a 34 on the road balancer. I've been trying to sell them with no luck. I'll throw these in at no cost. This is my first time selling a vehicle on AcuraZine, if I'm missing any critical information please let me know. Also, both key fobs are included.

PM me if interested.

I was looking at the thread you posted about replacing the hood in this thread.

Were these the "normal rock chips" you mentioned above? What did you finally decide to do? You never posted anything in the thread about how you resolved your problem.

Can you post better pictures of the hood?

waxy1926

Yes they are the normal rock chips mentioned above, I never ended up replacing the hood. I can post more detailed pictures of the hood tomorrow morning, no problem at all!
