Just me but it looks like a repaint. If that's paint on the muffler that is.

I agree, that was my first thought too! Interior appears to be a little worn for it's outside condition.

Beautiful color!

However, this is not a 93' color. I have a 93' SC brochure and this color was not listed as one of the colors featured on 93' SCs.

Within a hour and a half of my first post on the thread I had found the car, negotiated the price, put down a deposit, and booked a flight for the next morning, hehe. Picked it up around 1PM and started driving back.

so the question of the day is...

does the hood raise up on the driver side from the nose and dip down at the corner edge of the fender on the driver side?

I looked at that closely. The hood is a little offset but I will take care of it. It is raised on the passenger side in the front and dips on the drivers side a bit. Maybe 3mm max though.

This cars going to go under the knife as soon as I get a good enough sketch on how I want the air to flow through the tubing with the least restriction. I am going to have to hit the books on fluid dynamics for this one. I don't want to make something crappy. My biggest issue is finding a reasonably priced and extraordinarily skilled CNC Mandrel bending shop so I can get the manifold and intercooler pipes fabricated.

Mmm I love silver Soarers/SCs

Nice find! Also I never knew that silver wasn't available until 95+ in the US?
