Congrats on the purchase! That's a great color!!

I think you're right, it looks as if the previous owner took very good care of it, the paint still looks great!! The interior as good looking as the exterior? My guess is yes.

Nice find!! =D> I was looking at a Midnight Blue 98 SSEi when I was looking for my replacement...
After the first e-mail reply describing the car with additional pics, I was determined I wanted it, but then he didn't respond to my followup emails... :???: and I still saw it listed long after I found my silver one...some people. :angry7:
Anyway, Love the color! Pics of the interior??
