Has the vehicle been repainted again recently? I was provided a walk around video of this car 3 months ago, video now removed, from UnitedImportsCars.com and there was rust bubbling around the trunk latch, clear coat failing along the bottom half of the trunk, driver rear quarter panel, passenger front fender. Same video, dealer admitted the passenger rear quarter was patched with bondo and front driver seat was re-dyed yet no mention of this here. I personally didn't think it was worth over the $20k asking price.
I'm usually not a fan of modifying cars but this is well done!
The 1999 pre-facelift model is only 1 of 44 in Glacier White.
For anyone interested, here are photos of the vehicle before repaint. https://photos.app.goo.gl/7ZkWp68imMnGq3KT8
@ed_ba Should be fairly simple to test Parktronic, just get close to anything. Beeps and bars increase as you get closer. Simple thing to clarify to potential buyers. Definitely rare to see both so a simple clarification could help you get a higher bid.
@Armenian Ventilated Seats (401), Parktronic (220), and COMAND (352) were options for 2000+ model years, not just 2001.
