The front and rear bumpers both have sharply pointed ends that add extra definition to the sharply pointed fenders. The grille borrows a page from Rolls-Royce. And the red pinstripe loves to highlight the crisp lines of the car. The consignor states that the odometer reflects actual mileage, and that would represent averaging only about 1,400 miles annually. And the way all the distinctive pieces of this car have been so well preserved reinforce this low mileage and well-respected life so far.
