Second car in a week with those "extremely rare supplemental hood seals" fitted along the top of the fenders! The two-tone finish of the tarpad insulation is also...very interesting
Yes when I first saw that I was going to comment on the CSI comments from
@HB Chris. Factory replacement fenders include the CSI airbox bracket. Given the oddities on the inner fenders I was wondering if they were replaced. That is *before I noticed the CSI badge on the rear.
If the car happens to be numbers matching, I would think it was a decent deal worth examining. A CSI without the original CSI motor (or replacement) seems kind of like the point has been lost. A CSL with a motor swap still has a special CSL body, but a CSI without the CSI motor is basically a CS. No offense to anyone - hope my opinion makes some sense...
FWIW - A good way of spotting a CSI without looking at the VIN is to look for the wiring hole at the front of the passenger frame rail. Just below the ignition coil. CSI/CSL's have the hole for the D-Jet wiring, CS's do not.
