OK people, I want you to know that I have really slept well since after first almost falling in love with this car, then I started this thread, and when I discovered (thanks to the knowledgeable individuals that frequent the Shop Forum) that this car was not only described inaccurately, but when the seller withdrew the photo - I completely dismissed any thoughts of buying it.
I hope the buyer gets a decent car, if by any chance they ever read these posts, please stop by and let us know how it turned out.
