I didn't do anything. that is the way I got the car. it's been garaged since it arrived in atlanta. haven't driven it much either. been doing some maintenance work on the motor. I took up close pics to show you guys how the blemishes don't show from far away.

that's good to hear. i am the same way. i was a little upset when we went to look at this car to purchase it. it looked good from about 20 feet away. but when we got up close as you saw in the pictures earlier there were lots of blemishes. the interior is suprisingly great compared to the exterior. but it is in good hands now and will be up to par soon!
