History
This US car was originally delivered to a couple in Europe, which explains why it has a hardtop and no keyless entry. The first owner added a bunch of TTE upgrades. A couple in the US military bought it from a used car dealer and imported it to the Fayetteville, NC, area. I bought it from them.
